The Autobiography of Red lacks proper punctuation, sentence formation, and clarity in its structure. In addition, the ending of the book is ambiguous, while its entirety is questionably based on a myth. In doing all of this, the text allows the reader to place his or her own ideas within the text.
Similarly to Written on the Body, the Autobiography of Red leaves much to interpretation. Therefore, many moments can be applied to different life situations. The fact that the text is also loosely based on a myth further blurs the reliability of the text. Perhaps this creates a more engaging love triangle or more curious readers, among other things. If the text were to have a clear reading or understanding, I think it would belittle its importance because it would limit the possibilities that can be applied to the story. The confusion of writing style and structure in the text is actually what makes it more understandable to each individual.
