*“The Ring of Truth”* by Chet Raymo “In Salley Vickers' novel, ‘Where Three Roads Meet,’ the shade of Tiresias, the blind seer of the Oedipus myth, visits Sigmund Freud in London during the psychoanalyst's final terrible illness. In a series of conversations, Tiresias retells the story of Oedipus- he who was fated to kill his father and sleep with his mother- a story at the heart of Freud's own theory of the human psyche.

"The smallest decisions made had such profound repercussions. One ten-minute wait could save a life… or end it.
