Re: this is a tragic situation now the comedy

Lewis isn't really part of the literary or philosophical canon in the
west, though I think he deserves that kind of attention. Dostoevsky
definitely calls modernist assumptions into question, and _Frankenstein_
could be read along those lines as well. Not really sure where GGM fits
in there, especially that particular book.

But about the rest of it, yeah.
