La gabbia dorata

The world-building feels so immersive and layered — I wonder how much was based on real history or purely fictional creation. Did the author draw from specific historical events?

The characters' actions often blur the lines between right and wrong, which made me question my own judgments. Was this intentional or just a reflection of the complex themes?

The pacing of revelations kept me hooked, but I’m curious if the twists were always part of the plan or came about organically as the story developed.
