I hope we're all ready to leave the phenomenal world, and enter into the sublime?
I don't know what to say about this bizzare, yet beautiful book. I didn't love it, I didn't hate it. It's one of those books that leave you looking at the wall with a blank stare. Reading it in Greek certainly made the experience more poetic.
