"There are a number of ways of foregrounding ... intertextual space and integrating it into the text's structure, but none is more effective than the device of "borrowing" a character from another text - "transworld identity," Umberto Eco has called this, the transmigration of characters from one fictional universe to another."
— Brian McHale, Postmodernist Fiction (info)
