Title: Don't be confused
Review: If you are reading this book just don't think you are reading the Sumerian story of Gilgamesh and you'll be fine. This is a modern revery loosely tricked out in Gilgamesh's garments. To say it "takes liberties with the original" is like saying the 1960s folk-rock song "Turn, Turn, Turn" took liberties with the book of Ecclesiastes. As long as you have that straight and you don't credit yourself with a serious engagement with serious ancient literature, have at it. You'll even enjoy a few half-pages.--Z
