Goodreads asked T.M. Hoy:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

T.M. Hoy I was in prison in Thailand, and there was one day where death seemed very close - just a hand's-breadth away.
And at that moment, I realized how little we really need to be happy. That our lives are so basic, when you strip everything away.
The essence of the book was born right then.
