Casas de locos

The setting feels so authentic and lived-in, which makes me wonder if the author drew from personal experiences or extensive research. How did the author decide to depict these communities?

The story's dark undertones made me reflect on how societal pressures shape personal choices. I'm curious if others found the atmosphere oppressive or strangely relatable.

The characters' backgrounds seem to influence their actions and relationships heavily. What do others think the author was saying about these societal divisions?
