Kumar provides two extracts from Miriam’s conversation with Hypo Wilson in Clear Horizon to prove his point. In the first, Miriam emphasises how much she would like to see Hypo’s ‘world of ceaseless “becoming” exchanged for one wherein should be included also the fact of “being”, the overwhelming, smiling hint, proof against all possible tests, provided by the mere existence of anything, anywhere’ (IV, pp. 361–2). In the second, she contemplates this further:Being versus becoming. Becoming versus being. Look after the being and the becoming will look after itself. Look after the becoming and the being will look after itself? Not so certain. Therefore it is certain that becoming depends upon being. Man carries his bourne within himself and is there already, or he would not even know that he exists. (IV, p. 362)
