Re <<

I wonder why Percy has that spiffy leather coat, while the others have woolen coats?


>>

My guesses:
1. Leather is warmer for Russian winters
2. Percy looks cooler during winter
3. Girls like spiffier dressers
4. Something about equality per Animal Farm by Orwell en.m.wikipedia.org
5. All of the above

Percy's second wife was Murcia, a Russian Swede, and perhaps she favored leather when wrapped around a French creole Hakka Chinese ?
