Madame Tussaud: A Novel of the French Revolution by Michelle Moran

Tussaud is a good person to follow to cover a lot of viewpoints of the French Revolution: the nature of her business and her ambitions meant that she had contacts on all sides of the conflict. Moran makes vivid how living through a major historical movement might feel--how they result via a series of perhaps small decisions by many players.
