Goddess of Sumer - From Scratch is a mythic, literary journey into an imagined dawn of civilization, blending ancient Mesopotamian atmosphere with themes of creation, memory, and renewal. Set in a reimagined Sumer where gods, mortals, and clay-born beings walk the same riverbanks, the novel unfolds in sixty-one interlinked chapters-each a fresh "scratch" on the tablet of becoming. At its heart lies a question as old as the first cities: What would happen if a people chose to build through listening rather than conquest?Through the voices of Emer, Halduk, Dalan, Karash, Ilama, and a chorus of others, readers witness temples that heal when sung to, libraries whose breathing texts vanish unless revisited with new understanding, and rivers that answer gratitude more readily than sacrifice.
Two sister cities-Uruk the Rememberer and Iluk the Listener-must learn to weave their destinies together with former enemies, forging a covenant rooted in empathy and shared vision. While inspired by real landscapes, cultural traditions, and myths of Mesopotamia, this is not a historical retelling. Instead, it is a spiral narrative-part fable, part epic, part invitation-asking the reader to become a co-creator.
Each chapter leaves space for reflection, inviting you to step into the pattern, carry the questions forward, and shape your own continuation of the story. Perfect for lovers of historical fantasy, myth-inspired fiction, and literary tales with philosophical depth, Goddess of Sumer - From Scratch invites you to enter through the Uncarved Gate, feel the clay warm beneath your hands, and join in the oldest act of all: making the world anew.
