I see what you mean. Then there was the other Cold Warrior brother
W. W. Rostow. ( Walt Whitman???)  The w spelling is correct though as I
recall it was PRONOUNCED Ross-toff.

So the whole thing becomes Oedipa(L). Intergenerational battle to the
death--which fits the sixties all right.

Frenesi does seem stricken with a death wish.

Way to go, Charles.
