Might Profane be gay? -- All the evidence

[Heikki Raudaskoski]

And all Weissmann does in the non-vanilla department in THIS novel
is... But lessee when we get there.

On the basis of the first two chapters (don't want to jump the gun),
it seems adequate to say that the novel so far is in turns antisexual
and asexual. Sex in all its forms just another inanimated yo-yo
routine. A drained mid-20th century version of the picaresque (more
precisely, its materialistic lineage: Spanish 16th century picaros,
Gil Blas, Moll Flanders etc).
