Story
The recidivist-extortionist Arthur Vinda is committed to telling heart-breaking stories to people about how he got to such a life, and without fail convinces the interlocutor that he is ready to start a new life, for which he just needs a little money. In the same way, using his acting talent, Windows managed to deceive the judge, who sentenced him three years ago.
Artistic Features
The main character is written by the author in such a way that it seems that not all of his life is sheer lies and deceit, that he really did good deeds and sought to start a new life. However, suppressing these impulses, he went the easy way. [1] However, the writer does not name the reasons for this moral fall of the protagonist, inviting the reader to reflect on this himself.
