I will live happily in the bosom of marriage
In it I seek refuge, help and rest
And I live in those gardens and ascend
Until I taste the sweetest and most abundant
In those gardens the heart is reassured
This life, if it is disturbed, will disappear
And the heart is safe in it and does not tremble
And from it its fragrance emanates
My husband is only fit for my cooking, which I have mastered
And in it is the skill of night and morning
And I offer him the most delicious food he has not tasted
Single and with it I succeed
My husband, if I cook, I do not hate what
she cooks, and her cooking revives the souls
Can the soul live without
cooking and possess its key through visions?!
And I see that divorce is permissible for someone who has not mastered
cooking and is not able to do it
For cooking is the pinnacle of companionship between spouses, so will they
reach it if they lose their wings in it?

WARNING. I will be tapping into one of your favorite creative tensions: The absurdity of humans worshipping their glowing rectangles as if they were tiny oracles. There’s something deliciously poetic about that contradiction, and it lends itself beautifully to an instructive proviso.

Rachel Reviews: The Spiral Archive by Pieter Hendrik
It's difficult for me to know where to start with a review of this book as it was, for me, an entirely unique experience and one that I'll probably never have again. I don't want that to be interpreted as unenjoyable but it has left me scratching my head a little and ruminating on its content, its themes and its characters.
