The Celestial Hunter

An unforgettable journey through centuries and across cultures to the pivotal moment in evolution—when humans did something that no species had yet tried—when we became the hunter and no longer the prey. Informed by Greek and Egyptian myth, the stories of poets, shamans and gods, Roberto Calasso's expansive exploration of our relationship to animals and sacrifice, encourages us to reframe our understanding of our place in history, and in the world.
