Well! I appologize for the long delay. I have made a decision and I've been very busy reading up on it. I've already read up to well past the third book and I've got to say it has been well worth my time and I struggle to put it down after the hour has long past that I've picked it up.
Some things I've noted and could use more discussion is the particular manner of speaking the narrator imparts the work. The speaker is characterized partly by the diction he uses throughout the work, namely the fact that he "speaks" to others while relating the story in his mind. What can be assumed about the speaker Valentino by this fact? I have some ideas but I'm curious as to what others have picked up on.
