Throughout this book we analyze Alan Grant as he uses every resource he has surrounding him to help mold his impression on Richard III. I say this because Grant uses multiple sources of different mediums whether its a person or portrait. I allude to Tonypandy and the rubix cube because if someone does not know how to solve a rubix cube, they will simply shuffle throughout the millions of unsolved combinations. In addition this "Tonypandy rub cube" will can never be solved. As Grant asks by standers or nurses about their impression of Richard III and whether he was a killer or not, represents the shuffling of the Tonypandy cube. Grant may ask dozens of other people about their impression or prior knowledge of Richard III however, he will never know the truth. I believe that relates to our class discussion of history and fiction because after reading this book, history may as well be fiction. Especially with a topic like Richard III who lived a very long time ago, no one to this day knows the truth about him because there have been passings from generation to generation of influenced stories to make hi sound like a hero or a murderer for biased reasons.
