"Prisoners: Fast Bound In Misery And Iron" by Mary Cholmondeley is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Fay, the Duchess of Colle Alto, a young Englishwoman living in Italy, grappling with both marriage and forbidden love. As she navigates her feelings for her husband and her cousin Michael, who returns to her life after years apart, she finds herself embroiled in a tragic situation that tests her loyalty and desires. The opening of the novel introduces Fay as she stands on her balcony overlooking Rome, consumed by thoughts of Michael. Despite her outward charm and innocence, she is trapped in a marriage that is failing to meet her emotional needs. As Michael re-enters her life, old feelings awaken, complicating her situation further. The narrative adeptly reveals Fay's inner conflict and her struggle between societal expectations and personal happiness, setting the stage for the melodrama that is to unfold. The tension between love, duty, and the consequences of societal norms are likely to play a significant role as the story progresses. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
