Some examples of Michels’ immoral behavior” are the fact that he, effect, kills his wife Marceline who has tuberculosis by traveling with her endlessly while she is sick, waring her out until she finally dies. This is one of his greatest crimes, the murder of his wife.
Other examples of his immoral behavior are the passive aggresive and subversive acts against his wife, like the stealing of the scissors by Moktir, leaving his wife on the night when she loses their baby while he spends time with his friend. He also acts immorally when he joins up with the men who poach on his farm – trying to become their kind by stealing from himself as he tried to rid himself of bourgeois “culture, propriety and rules”.
Michel was a loser.
