(urth) more thoughts on Jolenta

[Jane Delawney]

I'd agree with Jerry here, when Jolenta has died Severian realises that 
not only has she been (quite literally!) put under a 'glamor' to make 
her believe that she is beautiful, not only has she had hair extensions 
and the local equivalent of breast and 'booty' enhancements, but that 
there are wires and bands of steel concealed within her flesh. She's 
kind of half-woman, half- android. No wonder the Claw had no effect.
