The series contains literary works created by Beverley Simons from 1956 to 2012. Simons worked in a variety of genres, producing drama, fiction, non-fiction, and film scripts. From 1956 to the late 1970s, Simons focused primarily on drama, creating abstract, symbolic texts that interrogated Western epistemologies and relationship structures, particularly those between middle-class men and women. Several of Simons plays were produced during this period, and these plays are heavily represented in the series: The Elephant and the Jewish Question (Vancouver Little Theatre Association, 1968); Greenlawn Rest Home (Savage God—Simon Fraser University and the Vancouver Art Gallery, 1969); Crabdance (A Contemporary Theatre, 1969; Playhouse Theatre Company, 1972; Sigma, 1994); Preparing (Simon Fraser University, 1973); and Prologue, Triangle, and Crusader (Savage God—York University, 1976). Simons also generated several radio plays and film scripts on commissions from various organizations. The film scripts Ezekiel Saw a Wheel and A Question of Symmetry, both created during the early 1970s, are heavily represented in the series. Only one of Simons’ film scripts was produced during this period—The Canary, commissioned for C.B.C. T.V. (1967).

The trilogy remains incomplete; however, the series contains numerous Da Vinci’s light manuscripts, many of which contain handwritten annotations. Simons also published several short stories during this time in Vancouver-based literary magazines, including PRISM international and the best of blewointment.
