Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The Great BelowBook Three of The DescentShe is back. Her sister is still there. They have not yet said what needs to be said. Inanna has returned from the underworld changed: wearing the below-world's clarity in her eyes, the ring of office on her finger, and the knowledge of what she manage…d and what she did not say and what it cost. She has named her husband as the seasonal substitute. She has told the assembly the true thing. She is governing, for the first time, from the full depth of what she knows.Below, Ereshkigal waits: for the shepherd king who chose to come, for the archivist who arrived with her tablets, for the word she does not yet have for what she is beginning to feel. For the conversation with her sister that has been three thousand years in the approach.Dumuzi descends at the season's turning. Geshtinanna follows. The gray country receives its first voluntary residents and discovers, in the receiving, what it has always had the capacity to be.And then, in the second cold season, Inanna goes back: not for the gate, not for the judgment, not for the survival of the descent. She goes back for the ring she left on the ledge, and for what the ring was only the occasion of. Both sisters have been carrying the same morning in different forms for three thousand years. This is the story of what happens when it is finally in the same room. Also in The Descent: Book One: The Gate of IshtarBook Two: The Seven GatesBook Four: The Return This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The Descent is a four-book literary fantasy retelling of the Sumerian Inanna descent myth, drawing primarily from the hymns and narrative cycles of ancient Mesopotamia, including "Inanna's Descent to the Underworld," the "Dumuzi and Inanna" lyric cycle, and the hymns of Enheduanna (c. 2285-2…250 BCE).In the original mythology, Inanna - queen of heaven, goddess of love and war - descends to the underworld ruled by her sister Ereshkigal. She passes through seven gates, surrendering one divine garment at each. She is killed, hung on a hook for three days, and restored through the intervention of Enki. The condition of her return: a substitute must go in her place. Dumuzi, who did not mourn her absence, is named. He descends. His sister Geshtinanna volunteers to share the term: six months each, alternating. The seasons are born.This series asks: what is the three thousand years before the descent? What happened at the rim? And what is the return - not the gate, not the ascent, but the life built on what the descent gave her?The fourth book covers the five years after the ascent. It is a novel about carrying the weight of the cost of return, about the governance of the person who has been to the bottom of the world, about the language that gets made when the words do not yet exist, and about the both - the simultaneous truths the descent makes visible.Enheduanna, who appears in the epilogue, was the daughter of Sargon of Akkad and high priestess of the moon god Nanna at Ur. She is the earliest named author in recorded history. Her hymns to Inanna survive in cuneiform on clay tablets, including "The Exaltation of Inanna" (Inninsagurra) and "Inanna and Ebih." The voice given her in the epilogue of this novel is imagined. The fact of her existence, and the fact that she wrote, is not.The series is dedicated to the proposition that the first poets knew what they were doing. This item is printed on demand.
