In un mix sorprendentemente originale di poesia, dramma e narrazione, Anne Carson porta Gerione dalle ali rosse di Autobiography of Red, ora chiamato "G", all'età adulta e attraverso i complessi labirinti dell'era moderna. Lo accompagniamo mentre viaggia con il suo amico e amante "Sad" (abbreviazione di Sad But Great), un veterano di guerra, e con Ida, un'artista, attraverso una geografia che spazia da pianure di ghiaccio glaciale a idilliaci pascoli verdi; da una clinica psichiatrica alla casa cupa dove la madre di G deve affrontare la morte. Ossessionato da Proust, giustapponendo la fame di volo con il desiderio di famiglia e casa, questo verso picaresco profondamente potente invita i lettori a uno straordinario viaggio di intelletto, immaginazione e anima.
