Szare Śniegi Syberii

The story feels so vivid and personal — I wonder what inspired her to tell this particular chapter of WWII that isn’t as widely known.

The characters’ resilience really stuck with me, but I also felt the weight of their suffering. How did others process the intense emotions?

Their bond was so central to the story, and I loved how it added layers of hope and sacrifice. Did anyone else see this as the heart of the novel?
