Indeed, it had been signed with the name Who May.

"L'or du temps."

(I:or du temps ... !)

Sakakibara groaned.

"L'or du temps" was "the gold of time."

The inexplicable letter that Avida Dollars, that is, Salvador Dali, had sent to Breton had spoken of "the gold of time"-

And then, in his epitaph, Breton was said to be seeking the "gold of time"-

Now here was yet another "gold of time" but-in this instance, it was not some mysterious reference. Rather, even if they don't really understand it, it was a concrete title for an actual poem-which had appeared before their very eyes.

And so ultimately-

Did Dali's "gold of time" and Breton's "gold of time" refer to the same thing?

And then did those two actually refer to the manuscript belonging to Antonin Artaud, titled "The Gold of Time"?

There was no way to know. Still, it was hard to believe that these were mere coincidences.

Who was this Who May, anyway?

Indeed, who may you be ... ?

Was it one of those riddles that the surrealists were so fond of?

There was no way to be sure. There just wasn't enough information at hand.

Sakakibara lined up the three documents on the worktable, the two manuscripts from Breton's trunk and the manuscript found among Artaud's belongings.

Three references to "The Gold of Time"-

Three manuscripts by "Who May"-

Two sets of three that formed a single link.

"Do you think that Who May was Artaud's pen name, as he suggested?" Kasadera said.

"If that's the case, we have a way to explain the connection with Breton. What a discovery that would be!" The graduate student who had first discovered Who May said excitedly.
