Il buon soldato

The shifting viewpoints add layers of complexity to the story. I wonder what inspired the choice to tell it this way and how it affected the emotional impact.

Their quiet, almost banal betrayals seemed more devastating because of how understated they were. Did this make the novel's emotional core hit harder for others?

Between social class, personal disillusionment, and the nature of passion, I’m curious which theme resonated most with others and why.
