Theme of the novel

when looking at this passage

Weegit the raven has mellowed in his old age. He’s still a confirmed bachelor, but he’s

not the womanizer he once was. Playing the stock market—instead of spending his time being

a trickster—has paid off and he has a comfortable condo downtown. He plays up the angle

about creating the world and humans, conveniently forgetting he did it out of boredom. Yes,

he admits, he did steal the sun and the moon, but he insists he did it to bring light to

humankind even though he did it so that it would be easier for him to find food. After doing

some spin control on the crazy pranks of his youth, he’s become respectable. As he sips his

low-fat mocha and reads yet another sanitized version of his earlier exploits, only his small,

sly smile reveals how much he’s enjoying pulling the wool over everyone else’s eyes.
