Une locataire si discrète

The suspense feels so natural and unsettling — I’m curious about the choices behind building that slow-burning dread. Was this a deliberate stylistic decision?

The unreliable narration kept me guessing, but I wondered whether I was supposed to sympathize with her or question her motives more deeply.

The environment feels almost like a character itself, adding to the suspense. I wonder how much of the setting was imagined versus drawn from real places.
