And, of course, she progresses through a kind of education as a reader.
-
She goes from being a reader who can listen, for example,
-
to the ambiguities in the Wharfinger play.
-
She can hear when the ambiguity creeps in between the words,
-
and that tells her that she needs to find something out.
-
That's what causes her to have the curiosity to go backstage.
-
She becomes a critic.
-
She moves from interpretation to actually finding the history,
-
and the intertextuality,
-
and the variations of these editions of the play.
-
She learns history, of the U.S. and of Europe, about the mail systems.
-
She learns the history of Inverarity's enterprises.
