** Also of her father. She admits freely that suicudesuicide is only her interpretation of his death, and she can never know for sure whether it is correct. When telling of things he did, she offers several different versions of what could have been the motivations behind them.
* [[Anachronic Order]]
* [[Art Shift]]: For the close-ups of the photographs.
Line 35:
* [[What Do You Mean It's Not Didactic?]]:
** Demonstrated [[In-Universe]] during Alison's literature class.
** Arguably invoked by the way she tells her own story, giving away pretty much all the key elements of the story very early on, and then spending the bulk of the book analysinganalyzing and re-assessing every memory of her father she has.
* [[Wrong Genre Savvy]]: When Alison comes out of the closet, she considers herself some sort of dramatic heroine. When her mother reveals that her father is also gay and closeted, she realizes she's actually only the comic relief in her father's tragedy.
