Arsène Lupin, Gentleman-Thief

Lupin's witty and playful personality feels fresh for a crime story of his time. I wonder what Leblanc's influences were in shaping this charismatic thief.

His cleverness and sense of justice sometimes blurred the lines between villain and hero. It made me question how morality is defined in these stories.

The collection jumps between cases, but each feels self-contained yet interconnected. I'm curious if Leblanc planned this flow or evolved it during writing.
