Author: Robert Graves Narrator: Gordon Griffin Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 58 mins Language: English Release date: 07-30-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: Written in 1925, My Head!

Graves uses the extended dialogue of Elisha and Jochebed to elaborate his own unorthodox theory of the origins of primitive Judaism and the role of Moses in the eventual triumph of the cult of Jahweh over the other desert religions of the time.
