| Summary | "Il Re Prega: Romanzo" by Ferdinando Petruccelli della Gattina is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative begins in a rustic Italian village called Lauria, portraying the lives of its inhabitants, particularly focusing on Don Diego Spani, a troubled priest, and his younger sister, Bambina. The story sets the stage for themes of societal constraints, spiritual conflict, and familial loyalty against the backdrop of the rigid social hierarchy of the time. The opening of the novel introduces the setting of Lauria, depicting the stark contrast between its two halves and the struggles of its residents. Don Diego is presented as a strong yet conflicted figure, grappling with the expectations of his priestly duties and his deeper desires for freedom and connection. His relationship with his sister Bambina reveals their close bond but also hints at societal tensions, as Don Diego's reputation and livelihood are threatened by accusations of wrongdoing. As the narrative unfolds, the siblings prepare to leave their village behind for a new life in Naples, marking the beginning of their quest for dignity and autonomy in a repressive society.
