Red, West and Sunsets
It seems like references to red, west and sunsets abandon in the novel. It may be nothing, but, in any case, here is a list, growing as I go through the novel:
Page 41: "warped to the red end of the spectrum"
Page 59: "more Connecticut, just shifted west, was all."
Page 63: "Gusts of hot red light"
Page 86: Webb "facing west into a great flow of promise"
Page 99: "Violent red sunsets behind Pike's Peak."
Page 126: "looking through a piece of Iceland spar at the sunset"
Page 127: "stretching as to sunset...", "setting off westward [...] farther away each sunset"
Page 145: "the fire-reddened light"
Page 153: "blood reds"
Page 155: "a ruined shell of rust-red and yellowish debris"
Page 156: "south of here, and likely west as hell"
Page 164: "He nodded westward"
Page 166: "the sun declined over the blessed possibility"
Page 171: "so it went, heading west again"
Page 174: "all those mountains and sunsets", "outshining the departing sunlight"
Page 209: "The country was so red that..."
Page 784: "an epidermal luminescence at the red end of the spectrum"
