Red the Negro shoeshine boy

[János Széky]

63 (Viking): Malcolm has (at least semantically, as his hair was just
reddish brown) Enzian's colors: red and brown (black). Pynchon new this,
and incorporated it in Enzian's figure (as well as his homosexuality) while
the fictive Enzian's youth predates the real Malcolm's. A case of hysteron
proteron, as Weisenburger would put it?
