Hi all, Just a throwaway point, but I guess people have noticed that Zwart's presence as the mysterious third attender at his own (as Skotos) funeral (242, 259) is surely a reference to The Third Man. We don't know exactly what rackets Skotos was mixed up in, but he has his shady nature in common with Harry Lime. Mo # ~ # ~ # WolfeWiki -- a wiki about Gene Wolfe http://www.wolfewiki.com/pmwiki/
