Незримое, или Тайная жизнь Кэт Морли

The narrative jumps between eras, and I wondered what inspired the choice to tell the story this way. Did this structure come early or evolve during writing?

Some revelations felt heavy and bittersweet, making me reflect on how much is left unspoken in families. How did others connect with these hidden histories?

The house almost feels like a character itself—its history and atmosphere deeply influence the plot. I'm curious whether it was based on a real place or a purely fictional creation.
