Omschrijving
In the name of liberty: A story of the terror examines the complex emotional and ideological conflicts that arise during the French Revolution. Rather than recounting historical events, the novel focuses on the inner life of a young man entering Paris in 1792, eager to align himself with the ideals of liberty. His initial optimism is gradually confronted by the contradictions of revolution, where idealism collides with brutality and the search for justice becomes tainted by fear and vengeance. The story emphasizes personal awakening and the collision of belief with reality as the protagonist is drawn into the lives of others shaped by hardship, resistance, and sacrifice. Through detailed depictions of street life and domestic spaces, the narrative captures how ordinary people are swept up in political chaos. The tension between youthful conviction and the sobering truth of violence forms the emotional spine of the work. The book becomes less about the revolution itself and more about how individuals cling to or abandon values under pressure. It offers a meditation on the cost of freedom and the fragile identities shaped by upheaval.
