Could you give me a summary of The Curse of Pietro Houdini?


ChatGPT said:
The Curse of Pietro Houdini by Derek B. Miller is a compelling World War II novel that intertwines a coming-of-age story with an art-heist adventure. Set in Italy during 1943, the narrative follows fourteen-year-old Massimo, who becomes orphaned after the Allied bombing of Rome. While fleeing southward, Massimo is rescued by the enigmatic Pietro Houdini, a self-proclaimed "Master Artist and confidant of the Vatican," who enlists him as an assistant in preserving the treasures of the Montecassino Abbey .

As the war intensifies and the abbey faces imminent destruction, Pietro and Massimo devise a daring plan to smuggle three priceless Titian paintings and a bag of ancient Greek gold to safety. Their journey is fraught with danger and moral ambiguity, involving a diverse group of companions, including a monk, a nurse with a hidden past, a wounded German soldier, and a loyal mule named Ferrari .

The novel delves into themes of identity,

I created a users, referendums, questions, and answers tables in the code below. Based upon requirements, it sounds like you will be able to identify users - I'll assume that they are logged in via an auth mechanism. Also, I would suspect that you wouln't want a user to answer twice so I added an aswered_questions to user in light of not wanting to leak user information into answers. One could probably use a hashed value to identify users at - I'd probably need more info.

Re anomynity of answers, at small scale this could potentially be traced but I'm assuming that there are enough answers that, probabilistically, this wouldn't be achievable.

In the answers table, I changed the answer_value to a Bool. I suspect that there will be more than just true / false in the future but for time being, this is sufficient. There would probably need to be an answer_choices table or possibly convert the answer_value to an enum. However, an enum would not be 4th Normal Form (that's arguable though).
