“Historical fiction presents a story set in the past,
often during a significant time period. In historical fiction, the time period
is an important part of the setting and often of the story itself..”
(Goodreads)
The website provides the reason of reading historical
fiction
“Most of us read fiction for pleasure, but some of us
gravitate especially to works about the past… A deep understanding of the past
can help us understand our own time and our own motivations better. And by
blending history and fiction, a novel lets us do more than simply read history:
it lets us participate in the hopes, fears, passions, mistakes and triumphs of
the people who lived it.” (http://www.historicalnovels.info/)
