В кафе с экзистенциалистами. Свобода, бытие и абрикосовый коктейль

The setting of the café seems almost like a character itself, shaping ideas and friendships. I'm curious if Bakewell envisioned this backdrop from the start or discovered it during research.

Their ideas about freedom and absurdity felt more personal and relatable, but I wonder if others felt the same emotional resonance or saw them differently.

The narrative flows so smoothly—was there an intentional storytelling style or structure that helped make these complex ideas accessible without sacrificing depth?
