Jenny (L'acqua del diavolo)

The characters often face morally grey decisions that feel very real. I'm curious whether this was planned from the start or developed during writing.

The rich descriptions of 18th-century life immersed me but also made the pacing feel slow at times. Was that intentional to build atmosphere?

The vivid portrayal of the era really brought the story to life. I'm wondering if the author had a particular fascination with this period or specific events.
