Episode description

This week we speak to Peter Mark Adams about his amazing new book, The Game of Saturn.

Recently released by Scarlet Imprint, The Game of Saturn walks us through the origin and meaning of the oldest 'tarot-ish' deck in the world, the Sola Busca card deck.

Peter talks us through the story of the emergence of these cards within an ascendant Northern Italy both exploring and putting to nefarious use its recently-acquired Byzantine magical inheritance.

The thesis is astonishing, the book is amazing, the conversation is scintillating.

Enjoy.
