Therapeutics

This book contains an excerpt from Margritt Oji's Therapeutics.

The excerpt concerns discussions with an oneiromancer as authored from the perspective of their interlocutor. Notably, it contains descriptions from the dreams of the oneiromancer of what are probably planes, trains, and a "mechanized person". It is likely that this is a reference to another piece of media, or perhaps simply an easter egg.

This book is redolent with the enticing smell of paper and ink.
