i think the book does a good job of explaining its internal logic. there are a few povs. one of those raised in the library is the primary character, even though they're part of the less than normal crowd of misfits her discipline was language, so naturally she is good at communicating and her perspective is about as normal as it can be given the circumstances.

another of the main cast is a fish out of water type regular joe, who is appropriately confused at the goings-on.

and it has fun with it's scenarios, the book knows how ridiculous it can be and characters can be just as bewildered as the reader, so it grounds itself that way.
