| Summary | "La Principessa" by Jarro is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds around Enrica, the daughter of the Duke of Montrone, and the complex relationships encompassing her life, including her interactions with Domenico, a gardener, and her secret involvement with Roberto Jannacone, a peasant's son. This tale investigates themes of love, betrayal, and societal expectations, setting the stage for the unfolding drama. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to a lively scene in the park of Montrone on the day of the Duke's return from military service. Domenico, the gardener, rushes to prepare for the celebrations, while Enrica's complex nature is hinted at through her relationship with her enigmatic maid, Cristina. As the narrative progresses, we learn of Enrica's strained emotional state and her clandestine affair with Roberto, which leads her into a world of secrecy and turmoil. The opening sets a foundation for the conflicts of class and desire that will undoubtedly unfold throughout the story, hinting at darker themes interwoven with the seemingly festive atmosphere.
