In the mid 1990s, a middle-aged female professor of literary criticism is seduced by emails from one of her graduate students, a much younger man, a married poet. The resulting confusion brings shame, guilt, and finally enlightenment, restoring her to a basic knowledge of her self. This novella uses the language and imagery of depth psychology, or Jungian psychology. The image of the labyrinth is used as an organizing device, evoking archetypes, dreams, myths, creativity, and synchronicity.
