Green and the Doocey trailer
he and Mildred Bonk and tiny incontinent Harriet Bonk-Green lived just off the Allston Spur in a shiny housetrailer with another frightening couple and with Tommy Doocey, the infamous harelipped pot-and-sundries dealer who kept several large snakes in unclean uncovered aquaria, which smelled, which Tommy Doocey didn’t notice because his upper lip completely covered his nostrils and all he could smell was lip.
Context
Where the motif catalog's "Doocey's harelip" claim (filed under scene 009) actually lands: the harelip as functional anatomy, a lip so overgrown it blots out a whole sense. (Scene 052, pp. 179-180, carries the book's fullest Doocey-harelip treatment — "His lip covered his nose. The harelip.")
