De stad aan de rand van de hemel

The rich historical backdrop adds so much depth to the characters' lives. I wonder if the author drew from specific events or stories to craft this setting.

The bond between the characters and the elephant added warmth to the story. It made me curious about how much of that relationship was based on real historical accounts.

Balancing individual character arcs with historical context can be tricky — I’d love to know if that was planned from the start or developed during writing.
