Enjoyable, reflective story about a brother and sister who can’t escape from their past. Family dynamics, especially in the absence or transition of parental roles, are a major theme, and the parallelism between generations is an intriguing aspect I wish I could explore more. Medical conditions (DM, AD) and lack thereof seem to be very symbolic, as well as resemblance and occupation. Forgiveness and resentment are also major themes, as well as the contrast between poverty and wealth as illustrated by the Dutch House
