Tom Reiss Zitate

The French Revolution was a kind of 21st-century moment in the heart of the 18th century - and Alex Dumas, outstanding though he was, could never have risen the way he did if not for that. The French Revolution was the American Revolution on steroids.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Die Französische Revolution war eine Art Moment des 21. Jahrhunderts im Herzen des 18. Jahrhunderts - und Alex Dumas, obwohl er überragend war, hätte niemals so aufsteigen können, wie er es getan hätte, wenn nicht dazu. Die Französische Revolution war die Amerikanische Revolution auf Steroiden.
