A gorgeous book, beautifully crafted and thought out. I loved the weaving of the real and the narrative, and found the story telling and imagery to be imaginative and creative. I particularly enjoyed the paradoxes chapter as well as the one following set in Greece, and the panels of Russell and Wittgenstein in the snow after the war. Food for thought, beautifully presented.
