Un été à soi

The storytelling fluidity really drew me in, but I wonder what inspired the choice to alternate timelines this way. Was it planned from the start or evolved during writing?

The nostalgia in the story hit close to home, but I’m curious whether others felt it made the present-day characters’ struggles more poignant.

The vivid scenery and community dynamics felt so authentic. I wonder if the setting was based on a real place or purely imagined.
