The Laughing Man seems to spend a good deal of his sporting time crossing
the border between China and France. Is it just so we can hear of those
DuFarges spending their time trudging around the Paris sewers? Or is it
perhaps an indication of The Chief's view that what some poeple see as
major gulfs between people are in fact small divisions of arbitrary
borders? I wonder, do Paris and China get further apart toward the end of
the story, or are both drawn together into the narrator's homelife in the
US?
