La Gardienne des rêves

The multi-generational narrative felt seamless, but I wonder if that was planned from the start or evolved during writing. Did it help shape the story’s emotional depth?

It added layers to the characters' struggles, but I was also uneasy about how the colonial history was depicted. How do others interpret its role in shaping the characters' lives?

The connection between rice and family legacy was powerful, but I’m curious what inspired the author to highlight this particular cultural element?
