The Death of Napoleon by Simon Leys

3.0

Fascinating "what if?" novel about Napoleon escaping from Elba. It's interesting to read the interior monologue of a great (but physically short and in this case not all that recognizable) man who has to reinvent himself in a world he's not accustomed to. He might also be crazy (I though the ending might have left some ambiguity, but I'm reviewing this two months later so don't take my word for it).
