Sortes Vergilianae is a form of divination by books, specifically Virgil's Aeneid. I continue to question the epic: it's the men who play with fire but always the women burned on the pyre, WHY?! The ability of making visual connection as a designer has made me a fine detective. My foresight however puts me in awkwardly social danger sometimes, death by moral, so to speak. Uncannily I was reunited with Nigel Slater nearly an exact year after by the movie Toast.
去年此時端坐京都開化堂的咖啡沙龍, 悠然午后品茗嗑小食翻書, 當時的我不識Nigel Slater何方神聖, 完全以封面和視覺效果取書, 想著要記下書名而後拋諸腦後.
