Marigold and Rose

The book's whimsical elements add a layer of wonder, but I wonder if they also deepen the emotional resonance. Did anyone else feel this mix heightened the themes of self-discovery?

Louise Glück's poetic background is evident, but I wonder what personal or literary influences led to this unique storytelling approach in 'Marigold and Rose'.

The story's exploration of self and transformation felt very personal. I'm curious if others felt a similar connection or if it prompted any self-reflection.
