Il guardiano del frutteto

The landscape and environment feel so integral to the narrative. I'm curious if the setting was inspired by real places or more of a symbolic choice.

The slow, reflective pacing hints at deeper themes about memory and change. Did anyone else feel like the story was more about what’s lost than what’s gained?

Their actions often felt open to interpretation, which added to the book’s mysterious atmosphere. Did anyone else feel like this made the story more haunting?
