Il bambino che non era vero

The blending of fairy tale motifs with contemporary themes felt fresh and unsettling. I'm curious where Keith Donohue drew his inspiration from for this approach.

The multiple viewpoints gave a layered experience but also increased the complexity. I'm wondering if this was a deliberate choice to mirror the themes of identity.

The book seamlessly blends fantasy with genuine human emotion, which made the fantastical parts feel more impactful. What do you think led to this storytelling decision?
