A quote from Edith Hall against a dark teal background. The text reads: 'In the eyes of many scholars, the scene of diving is a metaphor for dying, for the leap between the known and the unknown worlds ... What metaphor has ever attained such erotic sensuality? What longing for the beyond has ever been graced with such erotic presence?.' – Edith Hall, The Naked and the Dead.
