N2  - "Kansanmies: Romaani Ranskan vallankumouksesta" by Alexandre Dumas is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The book explores themes of revolution, class struggle, and loyalty during the tumultuous period of the French Revolution. The narrative begins with tensions between a nobleman, Count Charny, and a peasant named Billot, who embodies the anger of the oppressed against the aristocracy.  The opening of the novel introduces a heated confrontation between Billot and Count Charny, highlighting their differing social standings and the underlying resentment Billot feels toward the nobility. Billot recounts his transformation from a loyal subject to a man driven by vengeance due to the injustices he has faced, particularly concerning his daughter. As Billot shares his experiences during the uprising, including the storming of the Bastille and the ensuing chaos, he reveals the growing rift between the monarchy and the people. The atmosphere is charged with emotion as these personal stories intersect with the broader historical events, setting a dramatic stage for the unfolding revolution.
