I thought it might be of interest to place here certain quotations and epigraphs which bear on the story, since on a webpage things aren't laid out as they would be in a printed book, and I'm book-minded. So as not to deprive electronic readers, here I'll present the epigraphs, so far ..
To Volume One, "Queen City Stranger:"
"Beauty will be convulsive, or it will not be at all." --Andre Breton
To Volume Two, "Queen City Lover:"
“In that conjunction of the two sexes, or more truly, that fusion of them into one, which may be rightly named Eros, or Aphrodite--or both at once--there is a deeper meaning than man may comprehend. It is a truth evident above all other truths that God, the Master of all generative power, has devised and bestowed upon all creatures this sacrament of eternal reproduction, with all the affection, all the joy and gladness, all the yearning and the heavenly love that inhere in its being.” --Hermes Trismegistus
To Volume Three, "Queen City Deva ..." I'll add that when I get to that stage.
