The Women in the Castle

The historical backdrop adds so much depth to the characters' struggles. I'm curious whether the author was influenced by specific events or stories from that era.

Their courage in the face of unimaginable loss really stayed with me. I wonder how much of their strength is drawn from real history or personal imagination.

The multiple viewpoints gave a layered understanding of the events, but I’m curious if that was planned from the beginning or developed during writing.
