This paper analyzes "The Phantom of the Opera" by Gaston Leroux with an emphasis on the decisions that the characters must make to determine their fate and that of the people around them.

From the Paper:

Christine's teacher, Erik, is faced with a series of even more difficult choices. After a lifetime of abuse, neglect, betrayal, and worse, Erik finally decides to reach out to someone. Choosing to offer singing lessons to Christine was, in itself, an extremely brave act. Throughout "Erik's life, often the only way to survive a situation has been through killing, and his decision not to murder Raoul when he posed a threat to his relationship with Christine was an extremely difficult one. After seeing Christine cheat on him, Erik decides to forgive her of this and ask her to marry him. Finally, in an act of complete selflessness, Erik offers to let her leave with Raoul."
