| Sumario: | "Pursuing the Sphinx through kaleidoscopic sightings and encyclopedic observations, Willis Goth Regier plumbs the symbol's mysteries, conducting the reader down ever more perplexing and intriguing paths. His highly idiosyncratic tour of the ages and the arts leads at last to a conception of the Sphinx that embraces nothing less than all that is unknowable - proving once again that confronting a Sphinx is one of the most dangerous and exhilarating adventures of the imagination."--Jacket. |
