And the way the author described the 'gnarled branches reaching like skeletal fingers' – that simile really stuck with me. It added such a gothic, almost foreboding tone, didn't it?

还有作者描述'扭曲的树枝像骷髅般的手指伸展'——那个明喻真的让我印象深刻。它增添了一种哥特式，几乎是凶兆的基调，不是吗？

Absolutely, David. It created a sense of impending doom. And what about the recurring motif of the broken mirror? To me, that screamed fractured identity or lost self-reflection.
English
绝对是，大卫。它营造了一种厄运将至的感觉。那反复出现的破镜子主题呢？对我来说，那是在呐喊着支离破碎的身份或失去的自我反省。

That's a very insightful take. I hadn’t considered the relationship angle as strongly. I was more focused on the individual’s internal struggle, almost like a fragmented psyche portrayed through the shattered reflections.
English
这个解读非常深刻。我没有那么强烈地考虑过关系的角度。我更关注个体内心的挣扎，几乎像是通过破碎的倒影描绘出的支离破碎的精神状态。
