Great mind procreator there, Sir Savant; and relative to what. For those readers who will not clip on the post to find out what the hell you are up to, I add some of author Bob Devney's explication.
Jane explained.
I first (and last) read about the Jane Chord in a little article somewhere years ago. Details are hazy. I remember the author was an editor, and the phenomenon had actually been identified by his wife. (Name of Jane.)
What exactly is the Jane Chord?
My definition would be: "The outcome obtained by juxtaposing the first and last words of a given book or other written work to create a two-word phrase or sentence."
Jane, plainly.
OK, so a Jane Chord is the first and last words of a book, put together. What good is it?
Well, Jane’s contribution to world literature is the demented hope that the resulting verbal unit may contain some relevance to -- even some revelation about -- the work it bisects.
I also add some Jane Chord of my own.
