There are a lot of things one could say about this novel: the psyche of the characters, their flaws, their opinions, their suffering, their sins. There is a lot that can be said about the author's self-inserting through the Prince.
All I'll say is that I have never felt such sympathy for a main character as I have for Leon, and that is something that the book community knows to be rare.
