Ptyx is a hapax, created by the French Symbolist poet Stéphanne Mallarmé for his famous "Ix sonnet" - he needed a rhyme for "Phénix" (Phoenix), "Styx" and "onyx".
Ptyx is a non-word, but echoes the Greek for “fold” or “shell”.
Even if one does not give it a precise meaning, the invented word ptyx does what it is supposed to do: it represents a mysterious object that never existed, that has now disappeared, but that has an individual resonance like the poem itself.

I'm also A.J. Mirag, and I have published this M/M novel, Clippings, which you can buy from Amazon (paperback) or from Lulu (paperback or e-book).
