        Virginia Woolf advances her arguments through the narrative form by......... She is therefore able to transcend the rigid and binary foundations of patriarchal discourse.

        relate to women and other marginalised groups
        
        One of the many binary metaphors that Suskind uses in the novel is Baldini and Grenouille. Baldini is a perfumer who has no born skill or talent for making perfumes. He became a perfumer by his technical knowledge of making perfumes which he shared with Grenouille when he made him his apprentice. On the other hand, you have a man with no human scent or body odor but have an acute sense of smell that he was able to create perfumes so addictive and attractive to people that he made Baldini a wealthy man.
