Die Geister schweigen

The narrative jumps across time, revealing family secrets gradually. I wonder what inspired the choice to tell it this way and how it affected the storytelling.

The detailed descriptions really brought the setting to life, making me think about my own family history. Was that intentional, or did it just naturally emerge from the story?

The characters seem to grapple with what they remember and what they choose to forget. How do you interpret the role of memory in shaping their identities?
