Open City

The city feels like a character itself, shaping the protagonist's introspection. I wonder how much of the setting was based on real experiences or pure imagination.

The pacing allowed me to savor each thought and detail, but I’m curious if others felt it was a deliberate choice to echo the contemplative tone.

The seamless integration of personal and political made the narrative feel layered. I wonder what inspired this approach or if it evolved during writing.
