Wrong Genre Savvy
 The Frog King / int_20a14df0
comment
Wrong Genre Savvy: Harry hates clichés and the 'Hallmark' idea of love, and tries to avoid being too romantically cliché. Evie eventually points out that he's completely missed the fact that his attitude to life is, by that point, one big Wangst.

Sophisticated as Hell: Jordie Wesselesh is a lexicographer, which means he uses words from all cultures - like 'Cronkite' for news.

comment
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He may be an alcoholic, a failure at his job, a complete asshole to his girlfriend, a compulsive liar, and absolutely self-absorbed - but at least Harry looks after Birdie. Sort of. A little.

comment
Painting the Medium: The text is littered with 'Question' and 'Answer' segments by the narrator/Harry, as well as a 'Correction'.

Infallible Narrator: To be fair, Harry's an aspiring writer. Still, 'Her black hair was curling madly in the heat in a gonzo Pre-Raphaelite way I already knew she hated and she smelled of the street - dirty rainwater and hot tar'?
