La Caverne des idées

Somoza's integration of ancient philosophy with a detective story was intriguing but also complex. I'm curious how much of that was planned from the start or developed during writing.

The rich background of Athens made the setting vivid, but at times I wondered if it affected the pacing. Was this balance intentional to immerse readers in the era?

The combination of classical philosophy and crime was unique. I wonder what led to selecting this specific historical context for a detective story.
