Are you suggesting that it's the sound of the evacuation train entering the tunnel? But the screaming "holds" even after the train has halted.

And, given the remainder of the "holds" paragraph, and the way it rhymes with Pointsman et al's later ruminations about reverse causation surrounding the rocket impacts, it's quite clear that the screaming is the screaming of the V2 rocket (at least---it could be other things too)

I did not really think about it when I posted that but it works fairly well, Slothrop is an escaped imbunche. The Brujo Chilote have gotten subtle in their mutilations but I guess that is to be expected, in the modern world you must hide in the open.

Nah. I would be happy to discuss Slothrop as imbunche but I suspect I am one of the few (possibly only) anons who knows anything about Chilote folklore and has read GR. Would be fun to get into a discussion comparing GR and The Obscene Bird of Night but I suspect that is even less likely to happen than discussing Slothrop as imbunche.

Does paying for sex count as real sex if the whore falls in love, has you stay the night to sleep together in each others arms, and refuses payment the next morning? Sending you off with a smile, hoping you'll come back, even though you both know that you never will?
