Sześć szkarłatnych żurawi

Elizabeth Lim's blend of mythology and fantasy feels fresh and immersive. I'm curious about how she chose this specific story to retell and what cultural elements she wanted to highlight.

The story kept me engaged with its adventurous pace but also made me connect deeply with the characters’ struggles. Was this balance intentional or did it develop naturally during writing?

Their transformation is both literal and metaphorical, adding layers to the story. I wonder if the cranes' symbolism was planned from the start or evolved as the story unfolded.
