El jinete de bronce

The story's emotional depth is amplified by the backdrop of war. I'm curious what inspired the balance between romance and history in this novel.

The characters often seem powerless against the forces around them, which made me wonder if that was an intentional reflection of the era or a narrative choice.

It’s such a harrowing time—did the author choose this setting to highlight resilience, or was it to evoke a particular atmosphere that couldn’t be replicated elsewhere?
