#booklog 13 (12) Inanna – Emily H. Wilson

An enjoyable enough fantasy read – if that’s the right genre for retellings of mythology – though wasn’t hooked enough to complete the trilogy

(Did I briefly confuse Emily H Wilson with the Emily Wilson who translated the Odyssey & Iliad? Maybe)

Her name was Enheduanna, and she was a Sumerian priestess and poet. She was the daughter of Sargon, King of Akkad.

Her most famous poem is the Exaltation of Inanna.

Inanna was the great Sumerian goddess of love, war, and wisdom.

"Friday is associated with Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love, beauty, and desire. The day is often celebrated as a time to honor love, beauty, and feminine energy, and is associated with acts of self-love, romance, and creativity."

Her predecessors, Astarte & Inanna, are also goddesses of war.
