Un mois avec Montalbano

Camilleri’s depiction of justice often blurs moral lines—what inspired the nuanced choices behind Montalbano’s decisions?

The vivid descriptions made me feel like I was walking the streets of Vigàta. How much of that atmosphere do readers think was based on real places?

Focusing on one month created a tight, intense narrative. I wonder if this was a deliberate choice to heighten the suspense or if other structures were considered.
