Il giardiniere e la morte

The setting feels almost like a character itself—how much of that was drawn from personal experience or research? I wonder what led to the choice of this specific backdrop.

The way the narrative explores mortality feels very human and raw. I’m curious if others felt a sense of peace or discomfort while reading about the gardener's reflections.

The reflections on existence are deep but never feel heavy-handed. Did the structure help in making these themes more accessible or did it slow the story down?
