Once upon a time ... December 1, 2022, Paris "On this day of the second of January, King Louis XVI, named citizen Capet in times of revolution, was guillotined..." Alice was already not listening to history lesson. It was always the same anyway. The king and queen die, the people revolt, the nobles go into exile. thought the student. Turning the pages and pages of her history book, she could not stop wondering if something, someone could have changed the course of this year 1789! No, by the way, you had to go back much earlier to the beginning of the reign of the new monarch to understand. Running home after the bells ringing, the young teenager will run to the attic of her grandparents' apartment to open a box which, according to her grandmother, contained a newspaper. When she opened it, she smelled an old smell that simply made her dream. Alice began to read the tight, italic writing that covered the pages. What her grandmother didn't know was that this old diary belonged to Marie-Antoinette herself! These memories had disappeared during the Revolution, but they did not relate major events of the end of the Reign of this Queen. No, they contained memories, frivolous memories, full of fear, but also of joy. The Candor of the Beginning of the Reign. Alice closed her eyes and let herself be carried away by the memories of Marie-Antoinette.
