The Epic of Gilgamesh

The oldest poems ever preserved and they were with homosexual undertones. The story is somewhat engaging and better than the bible, mentioning the bible because there are some similar things like the flood and procreation themes. It is very fascinating to see such an early work of philosophy/religion/folklore/fantasy. I just started to put the history of literature into a weak retrospective and I am very excited to know more and read more ancient works.
