Following and extending the tradition of modernist novelists such as Marcel Proust and James Joyce, Al Faro's argument is secondary to his philosophical introspection. Cited as a key example of the literary technique of multiple focalization, the novel includes little dialogue and almost no action; most of it is written as thoughts and observations. The novel recalls the emotions of childhood and highlights adult relationships. Among the many tropes and themes of the book are those of loss, subjectivity, the nature of art and the problem of perception.
