The Pythia at Delphi — the Oracle — is one of the ancient world's most extraordinary institutions: a woman whose words, spoken in trance, directed the decisions of kings and generals for a thousand years. Papadimitriou paints her not in her chamber but in the aftermath, standing in the smoke, inhabiting her own meaning.
