Quote #10
[…] Emerging each time, with the same sense of disbelief and despair, into that temple whose guts had been bombed. (3.292)
David dreams that he enters a church, where he finds a smaller door. He goes through a series of smaller and smaller doors until he finally crawls into a giant, bombed-out temple. If ever there was a metaphor for suffering, bombed-out guts is it.
