L'année de la grande sécheresse : roman

The setting feels so vivid and immersive, almost like a character itself. I'm curious whether this was based on personal experience or extensive research.

The emotional weight of the characters’ struggles really stuck with me, but I wonder if that was the goal or if it was an unintended side effect.

It’s such a powerful symbol of hardship and resilience. I wonder if the author was inspired by real historical droughts or personal stories.
