"In the novel, the serial killer is obsessed with William Blake's artwork titled “The Great Red Dragon and the Woman Clothed with the Sun,” seeing himself as the Red Dragon."
"The Red Dragon symbolizes the antagonist’s identity and his obsession with transforming into a divine and powerful being a transcendental entity who must destroy his victims to achieve his “ascension” or transformation into his ideal form. This obsession reflects both his internal struggle with identity and his unresolved trauma. The power he tries to embody through chaos and destruction in his crimes reflects his mythical obsession."
