Language query

IN many presentations of Freddie Kissoon’s, I read the word ‘evanescent.’ For example ‘…evanescent ignorance…’ and ‘…evanescently clear language…’ and I am left to wonder if this use of the word ‘evanescent’ is not a case of malapropism. I would like a comment from the columnist. As a caveat, let me make myself clear: I do not mean to disparage him. I am just wondering if his articles are edited for linguistic inaccuracies and inelegance. Freddie is popular, but at times his writings border on jocularity and personal attacks. So my question is simply one of language.
