Le lac de la création

The small-town backdrop feels so vivid and integral to the story. I'm curious if the author based it on a real place or crafted it entirely from imagination.

The contemplative chapters really drew me in, but I wondered if this deliberate pace was meant to mirror the creative process or if it was a stylistic choice.

It seems like a symbol of creation and transformation, but I’d love to hear different perspectives on what it represents for the characters.
