Exploring the interplay between history and fiction, the book delves into how the past can be manipulated and romanticized, blurring the lines between reality and myth. It critiques the tendency to use history as a mere template for imitation, suggesting that such practices risk distorting true events. The author raises questions about the authenticity of historical narratives and the potential for collective memory to be shaped by storytelling, ultimately challenging readers to reconsider their understanding of history.
