Das Geheimnis der Schwimmerin

The mix of historical elements and fantasy felt so seamless — I wonder what inspired this storytelling choice and how much was planned versus developed during writing.

There were moments where I wanted more momentum, but I also appreciated the depth it added to the characters. How did others experience this part?

The way stories seem to carry the weight of history and family traditions really resonated. I’m curious if personal reading experiences influenced this theme.
