Cliches they say.. Dragonsworn Send a noteboard - 13/10/2009 12:15:40 AM
I would rather call the cliches they talk of more as intertextuality, since I without reading it think that's the way she uses them. Since she uses them delibarately in the world of the story, I think she maybe uses them like Haruki Murakami does, making them like obvious details that refer back to their origin, wether it be in novels, movies etc .
"I didn't have much to say to anybody but kept to myself and my books. With my eyes closed, I would touch a familiar book and draw it's fragrance deep inside me. This was enough to make me happy."
— Haruki Murakami (Norwegian Wood
