Als Bruchstücke eines Lebens sind sie überhaupt nicht fiktiv, sie sind durch und durch wahr und somit autobiographisch.Im Gegensatz zu einem Tagebuch ist es ein Nachtbuch, denn es ist vor allem das Dokument vieler Nachtstunden.Ein wesentliches Merkmal dieser Geschichte ist jedoch, dass sie noch nicht zu Ende geschrieben ist, denn sie wird erst ganz zum Schluss von einem Anderen beendet!Lesen kann man die Fragmente dieser Lebensgeschichte der Reihe nach, man kann jedoch auch problemlos im Text springen, Teile auslassen oder gar von hinten beginnen!
