![55.2 some fanciful geologic thaumaturgy .... a superlapidary effort.
Deliberate hyperbole to emphasize the immensity of Yvonne's task; a task as difficult, ultimately as impossible, as the alchemist's search for the philosopher's stone:
(a) thaumaturgy. Gk. thaumatourgia, from thauma, "a wonder," and ergon, "work"; a working of miracles or magic. In Eliphas Lévi's Transcendental Magic [360 ff.], the thaumaturge is a physician, one who makes things whole, but this thaumaturgy is beyond the powers of Geoffrey Firmin, magician manqué.
(b) superlapidary. A supreme effort in stone; from L. lapis, "a stone," and supra, "above"; a neologism suggesting the philosopher's stone of the alchemists, by the agency of which base metals might be transmuted into gold and imperfect man made spiritually whole.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:tjfcr277iebksvt55hbnueqf/bafkreidgptdy5xihbgmctxrblk7lfhylegsz3nblfo5bs2rwdpffq76zs4@jpeg)

1. The new batch of Epstein documents helps illuminate one contemporary controversy: What is Bari Weiss up to at CBS? I think the answer is she is trying to rehabilate the Epstein network as a bulwark of reactionary centrism. Let me explain.
