And yes, it's true that with proper body language and voice tones you can still get good emotion out of a faceless character. But... that tends to work better when the audience can SEE the person in question, rather than reading about them. Oh...errors have been made.

I suppose the reader is meant to use their imagination for what the guy's expressions would be while talking via the body language. Depends by person I suppose, I can kind of piece it together just fine (provided the author is a good writer and can convey emotion well in the text).
