In "ADA", we find that Van/Voltemand´s
geography was often bound to rosacean rooms and bodies (
and many buildings, such as PF's Wordsmith library are shaped as a
circle):
“seen from above(…) the large island of the
bed illumined from our left (Lucette’s right) by a lamp burning with a murmuring
incandescence on the west-side bedtable. The top sheet and quilt are tumbled at
the footboardless south of the island where the newly landed eye starts on its
northern trip, up the younger Miss Veen’s pried-open legs (…)out of the dim east
to the bright russet west( A,
419/20).
