Myra Breckinridge uses alternating first-person narrators (one as if transcribed from unedited tape recordings) to provide its expose of the superficiality of contemporary sexual mores. This method works very well in withholding the book's secrets for disclosure at the right moments. Myra's diary gives full insight into her overripe vision of reality, and Buck Loner's tape recordings provide an appropriate leavening of the mundane and help keep the reader from taking Myra too seriously.
