As far as the time flip goes, it wasn't that strange at the
time the Stark books were written. It even showed up in
movies like Kubrick's The Killing. (I haven't read White's
book, is it structured the same way?) It seems to be only
recently that it has become required that all books/movies
must be told in a strictly linear fashion. Although it is
nothing new to Tarantino (then again, what is original in
Tarantino? Don't take that wrong, I'm a fan of his movies), I
thank him for making it an acceptable storytelling device
again.
