Examples of Imagery:
"I know it was a Wednesday, because the date is blue in my mind and Wednesdays are always blue, like the number 9 or the sound of loud voices arguing." Chapter 1, p. 1
"The cacophony of different noises - magazine pages being flicked and Walkmans playing loud, thudding music and people coughing and sneezing and talking noisily - made me feel unwell and I pressed my fingers into my ears when it felt as though my head was about to shatter into a thousand pieces." Chapter 7, p. 117
