In her trademark lusciously erotic writing, majestic poet and storyteller Judy Grahn illuminates eight, dramatic stories in Eruptions of Inanna exploring the Mesopotamian goddess Inanna's power and relevance for contemporary queer feminist audiences. Psychologically rich, morally and ethically exhilarating, passionate and full of life, the stories in Eruptions of Inanna: Justice, Gender, and Erotic Power emerge with women and queer people as central actors. Exploring these ancient, poetic dramas, powerful archetypes surface: heroines, sisters, warriors, culture creators, dispensers of justice and compassion, guardians of nature and urban life. In every sentence, Grahn proves how retelling origin stories is a vital world-making activity, delving into history and mythology to tell old stories in new ways, centering traditionally marginalized people.
