"The point is that The Inferno is V-shaped, like The Street."
Bailey observes:
"V as a downward-pointing arrow . . ."
Dave Monroe states:
"Okay, V. Note the title, a letter and a punctuation mark . . ." (and
all that follows in his post)
Recall, as well, that there are a couple of references to "wedges," as
when the men of the Impulsive charge the breast taps in a "flying wedge"
formation (football term? military term?), and the appearance on "one
Duke Wedge" (20-1).
