Cittadini. Cronaca della Rivoluzione francese

The narrative feels so rich and layered — I wonder what guided the choices about which events and characters to focus on, and which to leave out.

The way the book paints scenes of common people participating made history feel so tangible. Were these moments based on specific sources or more interpretive?

This approach made the story feel immersive, but I’m curious if that was a conscious decision to mirror the unfolding nature of history itself.
