LA LEGENDE D'HENRY SMART (ET D'AILLEURS)

Doyle's depiction of Ireland during this period feels visceral and authentic. I'm curious if the historical details influenced the character's journey more than the plot itself.

His actions often seem morally ambiguous, which made me wonder how much of his behavior is shaped by the brutal times he lives in. What were your thoughts on his moral compass?

The innocence juxtaposed with the violence was powerful. I wonder if this narrative choice was to emphasize loss of innocence or for another reason.
