This structure of interlocking stories allows for different reading paths, mirroring life's nonlinear aspects and the complexity of human relationships.
Catherine Lacey's 'The Möbius Book' uniquely intertwines fiction and nonfiction, exploring breakup themes through two perspectives, creating an interwoven narrative reflecting life's complexities.
The nonlinear structure of 'The Möbius Book' allows readers to approach the narrative from either direction, emphasizing the cyclical nature of stories and relationships.
