La dame des livres

The story feels so rooted in a specific time and place—I'm curious what sparked Heather Henson's interest in this tradition and how much of it is based on real events.

The story captures both the joy of discovering books and the hardships of rural life. How did others connect with the emotional depth of the characters?

It felt authentic yet accessible, but I wonder how much research went into portraying the setting and community realistically.
