Analysis and comments on The House of Christmas by G.K. Chesterton

Comment 2 of 2, added on October 9th, 2005 at 7:26 PM.

Life involves things not easy. Homeless all day, everyday, 24/7/365, just to rest a bit, keep moving. No fault, no blame, just reality, just truth.

Well said GK

I'm reading James Joyce's "Ulysses" and at line 3:47, Stephen Dedalus imagines that his parents "clasped and sundered" in order to beget him. I guessed that perhaps this was a sly joke, a rewriting of a phrase (which I guessed to come from Classical literature, in re: the Titans), perhaps "clashed and thundered"...So I googled the phrase, and it led me here...Strange
