A trilogy about mind, intimacy and desire
Sapiophile
Original Norwegian title: Sapiofil
What attracts us to another mind, what makes it possible to think closely together, and when does the exchange acquire erotic meaning?
01 / THE WORK
Three independent books move from the quality we notice, through the encounter we participate in, to the desire that sometimes emerges — not as a causal chain, but as three distinct investigations.
