You literally don't understand! It's about libraries and books and literature, it's about a story that's grand but it's also about a story you tell to a sick and scared child, it's about what is real and what is true but also what's fake and made up, it's about storytelling and intertextuality and the human else to say, "Once upon a time...", oh I'm SPINNING!
