Five hours with Mario (2004) ISBN: 4882029111

The political and social backdrop seems to deeply shape the character's thoughts. Did the historical context feel integral or could it have been set elsewhere?

This format creates an intense intimacy, but I wonder if it was also a way to mirror the character's internal struggles or societal tensions.

The character's opinions felt layered and sometimes uncomfortable, which made me think about how personal beliefs are intertwined with societal pressures.
