To me, there's something offputting about trying to fictionalize historical events. It can only be enjoyed if you do not care about seperating the actual events from the fiction. And I do not want to be in that state of mind. I do not want to read something without caring whether it is factual or made up.
Journalism is always trying to find an 'angle' and fitting people into neat categories of heroes, villians or victims. Isn't that pre-chewed enough? Do we really need more?
