L'Angoisse du roi Salomon (Pocket Book)

The novel dives deep into psychological and philosophical themes—I'm curious what motivated the author to explore these aspects of such a legendary figure.

The introspective sections are powerful but quite dense. Was this deliberate to mirror Solomon’s inner conflict or a challenge for the reader?

The French literary context adds a certain flavor—I'm wondering if the cultural backdrop shaped the narrative or the characters' perspectives.
