Can anyone recommend good translations of The Descent of Inanna?

Wolkstein and Kramer do a wonderful job focusing on the symbolism and spirit of Inanna's journey. I'd recommend giving it a try.

Yeah, I used the Wolkstein and Kramer edition in an undergraduate religion class and found it quite readable.
