The novel's structure consists of three parts organised around a <em>mise en abîme</em>, which means that there is a story within the story.

The first and third parts, which frame the main story, are reflections about spirituality and the relativity of truth rather than a narration of events. They enable the narrator to address his readers more directly. However, during the second and biggest part, the narrator relinquishes his hindsight and lets the character speak as the story unfolds. This is a way to make the events more impactful, more vivid, because it gives the impression that they are being told in the moment by the very person who lived them.

Lyrx [107]

<span>In November 1872, Anthony voted in the presidential election. Two weeks later, she was arrested. After her indictment, Anthony gave her famous On Womens Right to Vote speech. In the speech, Anthony invoked the preamble to the U.S. Constitution, pointing out that it addresses We, the people, and not We, the male citizens. She argued that those countries that denied women the right to vote were oligarchies. At the end, she challenged her detractors to answer this question: Are women persons?</span>

During her trial, Anthony was unable to testify on her behalf, since womens testimony was not considered to be competent. Instead, her lawyer presented her arguments. She was convicted of casting an illegal vote and fined $100. Anthony refused to pay the fine, stating, May it please your honor, I will never pay a dollar of your unjust penalty. Resistance to tyranny is obedience to God.
