In an essay about The Sound & the Fury and how we can tell which of
the characters is talking, a critic says that the effect is a kind of
"photographic mysticism"...Meaning, it is all very visual and
'mysticism' is a kind of impressionism re that narrator mystery that
we can "get" without knowing exactly who is speaking every line.

So, I dub M & D narration:  "Becky's camera mysticism" of the narrators.
