Bound at the Campbell-Logan bindery using grey linen and handmade papers over boards.

Logan Elm Press: "A humorous interview between a modern scholar and the ageless Sphinx, who reluctantly recounts her relationships with Heraclitus, Sophocles, Oedipus and Homer, while playfully interjecting baffling discourses on the nature of time, memory, womanhood and truth. refusing to be pinned-down, she skillfully dodges the interviewer's questions, comically blending classical legends with contemporary myths."
