Misc. VL...more of the pervasive 'blue"

[Mark Kohut]

Ever since that critic pointed out the "blue" filling VL,
I see it in many other novels.......

(Maybe gotta read Gass's On Being Blue?)

Anyway, on the first page of Rabbit Run, 1960, John-boy Updike
of course, we get:

"moist March air blue above the wires"

"the pallor of his [Rabbit's] blue irises"

"squinting through blue clouds of weed smoke"
