Call Me Ishtar

She is Ishtar, Mother Goddess, Queen of Heaven, Angel of Death, Whore of Babylon, and, in this most recent incarnation, suburban housewife supreme. She is outrageous, passionate, and gloriously original, and she has returned to earth to right the wrongs wreaked by thirty centuries of patriarchal mayhem. She is a sublime sexual subversive whose antics are the stuff of great comic fiction. Which is exactly what CALL ME ISHTAR is: a rollickingly funny crazy quilt of fantasy, fable, and hard-edged reality a mad and mythic melange that is, ultimately, a work of vision.
