The character Sortilège appears as a supporting character in the novel, and although she does give helpful advice to Doc, she is not the narrator. While writing the screenplay, Paul Thomas Anderson decided the film "needed a female voice" and tailored it specifically for his friend Joanna Newsom. The character also fulfilled Anderson's desire to preserve Thomas Pynchon's prose, which is nearly identical to Sortilège's narration.
