Features contributions by Richard Cavell, Jutta Ernst, Irene Gammel, Paul Hjartarson, Klaus Martens and Paul Morris and includes Morris's translation of Greve's "Randarabesken Zu Oscar Wilde."

Recensioner i media

"Baroness Elsa and Felix Paul Greve were given to gender play, disguise, and challenges to identity that mark them as inevitably avant-garde. Wherever these sometime lovers moved, something hovered in the landscape with them, so that nothing was and will be wholly clear. Is this not, however, their true legacy, to be always slipping away from our and their desiring grasp?" E.D. Blodgett
