Lady of Love and War
Uruk, Mesopotamia, 3000 BC. Centuries before the famous Gilgamesh, a beautiful woman appears to be ruling the fate of the greatest city in the world.
Seven extraordinary baked clay tablets suggest her story: the intelligence, courage, and power of seduction that lead her to power, overcoming all adversity; the fight against the corruption of the priests of Inanna; the victory over the Amorite invaders; and finally the day she sets sail for the underworld, falling victim to the pestilence after floods that covered the land like a biblical deluge…
The tablets reach us signed by Zamug, the Lame, who abandoned the cursed city taking with him the teachings of Nisaba, that is, the secret of writing.
