And OMFG he is OBSESSED with Wolfe's physical body.
BOY HOWDY +1 :D
From the very first book, of course we have that fixation on Wolfe's lips (not to mention the 'being able to read volumes in the tiniest twitch of any muscle'). And in this book, I ran across one of the (many) bits that focuses on Wolfe's hands:
I passed [the letter-file] to Wolfe, and he opened it with the deliberate and friendly exactness which his hands displayed toward all inanimate things.
Those always catch my attention--as the books continue, through Archie's eyes Wolfe's hands are graceful, precise, strong, and a hundred other positive (and sensory/sensual) things, whether he's noodling with the orchids or handling a clue.
Man, even without all the rest, lips-and-hands lips-and-hands lips-and-hands--I keep thinking of the meeting-scene at the masquerade in Romeo and Juliet.
