Samenvatting:

From the dawn of the world's first empire, a singular voice emerged from the shadows of history. Her name was Enheduanna—a princess, a high priestess, and the first author known to humankind.

The daughter of Sargon the Great, Enheduanna was a woman at the epicenter of power, entrusted with uniting a fractured kingdom through faith. But her greatest legacy was forged in clay. In an age of anonymous scribes, she performed a revolutionary act: she signed her name to her works. Her poetry, a masterful blend of political protest and spiritual devotion, echoes across 4,000 years, chronicling her dramatic exile, her triumphant return, and her struggle to shape a new world.

Discover the untold story of the woman who wielded words as her greatest weapon and became an enduring symbol of resilience, creative genius, and female leadership. Approx.150 pages, 30900 word count
