there MUST be some historical portions to the novel. That's how it works.
Tolkien got away with no historical facts at all in his novels BECAUSE HE MADE THE SETTING UP OUT OF WHOLE CLOTH!!!
This novel is set in Paris for the most part. If the author invented Paris out of whole cloth, nobody would have bought his book!
