I’m also tired of reviewers calling Richard an “unreliable narrator”. He’s the most reliable character in this book. The problem is, he’s often left in the dark, and he lies to himself.
I’m not entirely sure what Henry was up to at the end, but I think he was unraveling quickly, and I think Richard was the target.
Henry has accidentally killed a farmer, murdered Bunny, tried to kill Charles and was apparently planning something for Richard. Even though Henry had literally saved Richard’s life the year before.
Bunny’s death was truly heartbreaking. He was the only character that actually told the truth, in his own way. He told Richard about Francis being gay, about Henry being a psychopath, the twins sleeping together…all of it. No one believed him. He told Richard the truth and he didn’t believe him, and when he was gone, Richard was left completely in the dark from there on out.
