"This was one of the first poems I read that gave me the shock of recognition that great poets offer. “Withered stumps of time,” “I will show you fear in a handful of dust,” “these fragments I have shored against my ruins.” I even like the obscurity of parts of the poem that have unraveled throughout my life when reading other books and ancient myths. It’s a modern epic from ancient history."

"Birth defects, ancient Chinese terra cotta figures, the history of clouds, burning questions about suffering, numbers, evil, and time — this strange gem of a book has it all. Each category of thought is a portal, and its structure is a thing of unfolding beauty."

One of my favourite podcasts
This has to be one of my favourite podcasts. I'm hugely into ancient egyptian history and so I was surprised but very pleased to come across this podcast. Each episode has been well researched and is well presented. It is largely chronological with mini episodes slotted in. It covers everything you could wish to know about ancient Egypt and more. Well worth a listen.
