Die Schneiderin Von Pernambuco

The setting feels so alive and integral—I'm curious what inspired the choice to blend cultural heritage with the narrative in this way.

The craftsmanship details brought the characters' resilience to life, but I wonder if that was a deliberate choice to symbolize their strength.

The dual timelines offered a rich view of cultural change, and I'd love to know if this structure was planned from the start or evolved during writing.
