I enjoyed how the reader is able to piece aspects of this novel together. Specific details mentioned through the retelling of history become reoccurring items later on. The pieces are slowly revealed as the complete picture is established.

Poetry is reoccurring throughout this text. It not only enables Zazoo and Grand Pierre to share their thoughts and feelings, but are eventually shared and impact each character. How do the themes within the poetry help shape this novel?
