Norman Brown's Influence on V

[Amit Chokshi]

Just wondering if any of you are familiar with Norman Brown's Love's 
Body?  If so (or even if you're not), I was wondering if any of you 
know/think Profane and Stencil are brothers?  Maybe it's blatantly stated 
but I didn't pick up on it.   Getting back to that "Love's 
Body" thing, are Profane and Stencil both looking for their mother 
(regardless if it's the same person)?  I'm asking this because "Love's 
Body" is like a psychological thing and has many ideas stating that sex 
is a substitute for one's mother, from a male perspective that is.  I was 
told Brown was an influence to Pynchon's V and was wondering maybe if 
this is one of those ideas Pynchon incorporated into his book.
