Licht über den Hügeln

The vivid descriptions made me curious about whether the setting was based on a specific place or a blend of locations. How much did the author's personal experiences influence this choice?

Their emotional struggles felt very genuine, but I was also rooting for their growth. I wonder how the author balanced these tones throughout the novel.

The interconnectedness added depth, but I’m curious whether that structure was planned from the start or evolved during writing.
