The Ball and the Cross
Comic adventure that is very much in line with The Flying Inn and Man Who Was Thursday.
Noted on November 11, 2025
The father with his square face and grey side whiskers, the daughter with her square face and golden fringe of hair, were both stronger than they know; stronger than anyone knew. The father believed in civilization, in the storied tower we have erected to affront nature; that is, the father believed in Man. The daughter believed in God; and was even stronger. They neither of them believed in themselves; for that is a decadent weakness.
