August Strinberg is a Swedish author writer, playwright and painter. He wrote Historical Miniatures and it was published in 2006. The novel has chapters for various characters in history. All the characters were men and they included Plato, Socrates, King Herod, Julius Caesar, and King Henry VIII. The author wrote conversations into the chapters as well as arguments and celebrations. Some of the scenes were funny. Although I read the entire book I can't say I know more about historical figures than I did before I read it.
