4 / 3 Imagine a place …
Imagine a place: a city you’ve
never been. It is home to a
shady, anonymous airport,
flights taking off to who knows
where; an arched library filled
with towering spires of books;
a restaurant in the desert, with
a table set for a future banquet;
and shimmering courtyards
looking out over the sea, palm
fronds shivering in the wind.
This locale is an enigma: it
summons your wildest dreams,
your deepest fears. It’s wide and
open, but layered with silent,
intricate mysteries. As blinding
bright as a night-time sun, as
dark as a jet black swan, it’s a
place you almost know, might
get to know, or could one day
find yourself in.
