Joelle visits Gately, Abiding (p. 862)
Gately nods studiously at each photo, trying to Abide. He hasn’t thought about the wraith or the wraith-dream once since he woke up from the dream where Joelle was Mrs. Waite as a maternal Death-figure. Next life’s Chet’s Mama. […] The open book she’s moving her hand around in gives Gately an idea he can’t believe he’s only having now. Except he worries because he isn’t left-handed. Which is to say SINISTRAL.
Context
The wraith-night officially un-catalogued: the narrator announces Gately hasn't thought about the wraith once — while Gately jokes in Death-doctrine terms ("Next life's Chet's Mama") and then produces SINISTRAL in caps, straight out of the p. 832 lexical flood, to gloss his own handedness. The haunting persists precisely in the sentence claiming it's forgotten.
