The Mistress Speaks: channeling a lost archetype (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781716280016)

The photo on this book is the building with the official name being the address; "30St Mary Ax" in London. But is nicknamed The Gherkin. It is featured in Basic Instinct 2 (2005) which is situated in London. To me the image represents both a phallus, pointing straight up into the sky. And the entrance can be viewed as a woman's pulled up legs, the feminine. Or the entrance can be viewed as the letter M from Mistress. The building is cold and hard, distant. You cannot get in, nor does it invite you to come closer. Literally! There are guards down at street level, who prohibit visitors from entering. Only the restaurant on top is available to the public. The tower is a mirror, it reflects your image. The symbolism being that the relationship between the mistress and her lover reflects who you are. You will never know "them" but being in the presence of the tower, you will have a chance to know yourself. The Mistress, early 2021
