Godot's Ghost
I've read Waiting for Godot about half-a-dozen times and seen it twice on stage many years ago.

What a shame the magazine folded. I expect that will be as familiar a story over the next year as it has been over the last. Fantastic that you chose to put your story here. I sincerely hope you're looking around for other magazines that might...

is that Ashurbanipal was Sardanapalus (and transliteration can do funny things, especially from cuneiform into Greek and later Latin script) BUT Ashurbanipal is everywhere else but in Cteisis's version - which itself is only known through...
