In the Heart of the British Museum
註釋Deals with the conflict between the needs of the artist and the intellectual on one side and the demands of society on the other. it explores this theme in three main areas: a Chinese academic being forcibly re-educated by Mao's Red Guards; the Roman poet Ovid, incurring the displeasure of the Emperor Augustus for writing erotic, subversive poetry and being exiled as a result; and the life of the gods, Tezcatlipoca and Quetzlcoatl, Philemon and Baucis, who may or may not be responsible for our destinies.
