The Epic of Gilgamesh is the oldest story ever preserved. What's it about? What can it tell us about humanity? How similar is King Gilgamesh of Uruk to the modern man? What can we learn from history's first warrior king? Dante walks us through the ancient story tablet by tablet, delightfully integrating pop culture references into his retelling. While Dante's tone is fresh and witty, a dark question haunts the pages of his 'ancient book review': does the Epic of Gilgamesh tell us anything about the God of the Bible? Is it possible the Bible stole from the Sumerian tradition? The answers may have dramatic consequences for all of us. Come for the history lesson. Stay for the jokes.
