This is the second book of a trilogy in which Zelevansky has developed a rich structure of symbols, signs, myths and word play with which to describe the Hegemonions, an ancient desert civilization – the people of the book.

It does not include the computer game, Swallows, on floppy disk and a glassine envelope containing sixteen of forty stamps of which each is a reduced reproduction of one of the Forty Cards of the Puppeteer’s Portable Traveling Pack. ‘GENEALOGY,’ forms an essential link between the creationist concerns of Book I (GEOGRAPHY) and the scientific concerns of Book III (THE HISTORY OF THE H TABERNACLE IN EXILE).“ –the Artist.

His works chronicle the lives and customs of individuals and civilizations both real and imagined, explore the possibilities of symbols, signs, myths and word play, and frequently call into question the power of the image.
