For over 4,000 years, The Epic of Gilgamesh has endured as one of humanity’s oldest and most powerful stories. Now, it has been reimagined for the modern world. The Epic of Gilgamesh–A Modern Retelling by W. Sumner Davis is a haunting, psychological, and deeply human exploration of power, mortality, grief, identity, and the search for meaning. Blending ancient mythology with modern psychological insight, this retelling transforms the legendary king Gilgamesh into a mirror for the struggles of contemporary humanity—our fear of death, our fractured identities, and our longing to become whole.

The book argues that modern multicultural societies are fundamentally at odds with how human beings evolved to socialize. It posits that for most of history, humans lived in small, tight-knit groups where trust, accountability, and cooperation were built on direct familiarity and repeated interactions. The core thesis is that the shift to large-scale societies, especially multicultural ones, has broken this natural social model. As societies become larger and more culturally diverse, the predictability necessary for informal trust erodes.
