A German autobahn in the 1930s

In the midway of this our mortal life
I found me in a gloomy wood
astray Gone from the path direct

--Divine Comedy (1320) by Dante


"I remembered too that night which is at the middle of the Thousand and One Nights when Scheherazade (through a magical oversight of the copyist) begins to relate word for word the story of the Thousand and One Nights, establishing the risk of coming once again to the night when she must repeat it, and thus on to infinity…" --"The Garden of Forking Paths" (1941) Jorge Luis Borges
