Book Walks with an executioner
In work of "Walk with an executioner" history of French revolution is presented by the eyes of connoisseur of death - hereditary executioner of Paris. Death went along with him hand in hand, his look and meeting with him was avoided by monarchs and revolutionaries. Passers-by, barely catching sight him, hastily passed to other side of street. With arrival of Revolution all changed: a derelict transformed in the Great executioner. A main acting person now a "madam became Guillotine". Invented for "democratic" privation of life of sentenced, she worked from sunset and before day. "People thought of a death penalty. They like to look at it. Executioner - only performer"., Сансон wrote in a diary in that, except maintenance of bloody account of victims, tried to describe the life. Life so unusual exactly in a historical relation.
