The essays were written for a lecture series that is still hosted occasionally by Alex and his wife Kit Boulding in their house. The essays are intended to stay somewhat mysterious in origin and surreal enough to exist clearly out of reality"--Statement by Friedrich Kerksieck at Vamp & Tramp Booksellers website, viewed Feb. 18, 2014.
