Der Kameliengarten

The dual timelines kept me hooked, but I wonder if that was planned from the start or evolved during writing. Did it help convey the themes more deeply?

The story's exploration of love and loss really resonated with me. I'm curious if others found themselves emotionally invested in their fates.

The historical details felt so vivid and meaningful. I'd love to know what led to the decision to use camellias as a symbol.
