It’s pretty timely right now, given *gesturing wildly at the state of the world* and I want to get it into as many hands as possible. Buy one for yourself, buy one for a friend (or enemy), talk it up, write a review, invite me on your podcasts—word of mouth is so vital to getting weird, queer, left-wing books out there.
It’s also a new episode day for Wizards & Spaceships! For 4000 years, The Epic of Gilgamesh has influenced mythology, theology, and literature, and its rediscovery in the 1850s is itself an epic tale of war, theft, and Hobby Lobby. A meditation on love and death, rage and grief, civilization and nature, starring two problematic queer frat boys, it is the foundation of so many of our stories. In our latest episode, “The Ur-Pisode: The Queer Heart of The Epic of Gilgamesh, ft. Julian Gunn,” we talk to poet, artist, and essayist Julian Gunn about the story that started it all.
