I don't think that I've really understood what the story was supposed to be about and after reading The Miser (which was really good) this was a disappointment. I couldn't really get used to the fact that it was told in rhymes, it felt so weird unlike for example Shakespeare's rhymes which fit into his plays so well. Here the rhymes were sort of annoying and ill-fitted. It was also quite short and you didn't really get to meet any of the characters. To me, everyone was unlikable maybe except for Elianta.
