It's completely linear, following the narrator's activities through eight nights. First, notice the structure of the narrator's tale. As the Invisible Man, in Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man says, "The end in the beginning."

He takes both twins home with him and promises their cousin that once he determines which is Fiona, he will return Aliss. Like any standard alpha guy, he is stubborn and no heroine is getting the best of him. Of course, the two have underestimated our hero. Presumably, they expect Tarr to throw up his hands in defeat and simply go home. The twins cook up a scheme to fool Tarr in which they will refuse to tell him which twin is Fiona. Luckily for Fiona, she has an identical twin sister named Aliss. Fiona, like any good feisty gal straight from Central Casting, is determined not to wed him. Tarr of Hellewyk is determined to wed Fiona MacElder (gotta love the names in this story).
