La deviazione

The novel captures the mundane with such tenderness that I wonder if the author drew from personal experience or observation. How do subtle details shape the emotional impact?

The slow pacing and minimal dialogue made the loneliness feel palpable. Did this emotional tone resonate differently with others based on their own experiences?

Bakker’s use of sparse language and internal reflection creates a deeply personal perspective. I’m curious what inspired this stylistic choice—was it a conscious decision or evolved naturally?
