The A.F.R. finds the Entertainment (pp. 725–726)
An expensive source in the Subject’s former department of the M.I.T. University had reported the Entertainment’s probable performer’s last known employment—the small Cambridge radio station which Marathe and Beausoleil had pronounced Weee—where she had donned the defacing veil of O.N.A.N.ite deformity.
Context
Fortier's intelligence review reaches WYYY, and the A.F.R.'s outside gloss on the U.H.I.D. veil is the prize: "the defacing veil of O.N.A.N.ite deformity." To Québec's amputee fanatics the veil itself is the deformity — an O.N.A.N.ite cultural artifact, defacing rather than covering a defaced face. One damaged-body ideology reading another's apparatus.
