Children of the Jacaranda Tree

The narrative spans decades and perspectives, which kept me engaged but also curious about the creative process behind this structure. Was this planned from the start or did it evolve during writing?

The story balances heavy themes with moments of hope, but I wondered how the author approached maintaining that delicate balance. What was it like to write scenes of deep suffering alongside resilience?

The vivid portrayal of Iran's political upheaval added depth to the characters' journeys. I'm curious about whether the author drew from personal experience or extensive research to create this world.
