Les Somnambules

The book mixes terrifying scenarios with poignant character moments. I wonder how the writing process navigated these tonal shifts.

The story covers so many perspectives and locations — was that intentional to show how widespread the chaos is? Or does it make the story harder to follow?

That element added a surreal, unsettling layer to the plot. I’d love to know if it was based on any real-world phenomena or purely fictional invention.
