Your picture looks so nice. I wish I had orderly shelves....instead I have 2000 books in one little bedroom all over the place, probably a fire hazard. I live right in the San Francisco Bay Area, a huge faultline, and I know there'd be a mess if a quake hit.

What is wisdom, and how does accumulating knowledge help it?
Hi infopump!

I haven't read any of Mitchell's translations. I have actually read another version of Gilgamesh, but reading different translations always helps me see the story in a new light. :)

My subject of choice is religion, so reading myths of divine things is always on my list. The pile always grows. Sigh.

What about you? Your profile says little about you.
