Gilgamesh... That was the hardest book to understand..my instructor just loved it.

I used to have a 'pocket penguin' copy of Gilgamesh that was extremely well written. It's been years though, and I'm not sure how faithful the translation was. I wish I still had it around though, as my kids like the new translation of Beowolf I read to them on a trip a year or so ago.I think the translater's name was Heaney or something like that.
