Tim Powers influenced by TRP?

[Ted Samsel]

  In Tim Powers' fantasy THE STRESS OF HER REGARD, there seems to
be a precursor to the clockwork woman in .V.
  This is in addition to some of the characters being such lit luminaries
as Keats, Shelley, Byron, Polidori & William Ashbless.
  Paul DiF can confirm....(!?!)
