黑獄來的陌生人

Carey's intricate portrayal makes the setting feel alive and layered. I wonder what inspired the choice to focus on these themes within this historical context.

The descriptions added depth but sometimes made the story feel slow. Was that intentional to build atmosphere or a necessary trade-off?

Seeing the story through his eyes added complexity and sympathy. I’m curious whether this narrative choice was planned from the start or evolved during writing.
