Humming the Blues / Cantando los Blues (a boca cerrada)
English
A usurper has attacked the temples of Ur and Uruk and the priestly poet Enheduanna prays for help from Inanna, the god who has disappeared into the Land of No Return. “If you were here, Inanna, you’d surround that big man in the sky,” Enheduanna cries. This collection of poems is a jazz poetry rendition of ancient Iraqi pictographs pressed into clay thousands of years ago by Enheduanna, the first person in history—female or male—to sign her own text.

Esta colección de poemas es una versión poética al estilo del jazz de pictografías iraquíes antiguas estampadas en arcilla por Enheduana hace miles de años. Históricamente, fue la primera persona—hombre o mujer—que firmó su propio texto escrito.
