Il lato umano

Gavalda's depiction of characters hiding their true selves feels so relatable. I wonder what personal experiences or insights influenced this focus.

The story's slow build made me reflect more deeply, but I'm curious if others felt it helped or hindered their connection to the characters.

The cultural nuances seem woven into their personal stories. I’d love to hear whether the setting shaped the narrative or if it was more of a atmospheric choice.
