The book employs a playful use of language and humor, often mixing light-hearted themes with darker, absurdist undertones, reflecting the complexities of life in a tumultuous time. The collection showcases Morgenstern's talent for wordplay and his ability to blend the serious with the ridiculous in a captivating manner.
