Bringing new life to the world's oldest story, Yusef Komunyakaa and
Chad Gracia have refashioned a classic Sumerian legend into a
compelling verse play. In this ageless saga, Gilgamesh of Uruk,
part god and part man, embarks on an other-worldly quest in search
of immortality. This new version elaborates on the key themes of
the story and weaves them into a vibrant and emotional new form.
Wesleyan's edition of Gilgamesh is like no other and will take its
place among the most powerful and engaging interpretations of this
timeless tale.
