I have been wanting to read it. Is this the translation/interpretation I should start with?

no mention of this bieng an actual translation from the original sumerian in any of the reviews, and the truely epic and laudable journey that is bieng replaced by the sleezy term 'verse translation', ie : hollywood sceen play ready, as is what could be the most that can be expected from a former probation officer and the official british royal panegrist.
