Summary "Baby" by Gerolamo Rovetta is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the lives of the aristocratic society in Verona, focusing particularly on the character of Andrea di Santasillia, who returns after ten years of absence. As he re-enters his former social circles, his presence causes a stir among the local elite, particularly among those vying for his attention. Amidst this backdrop of societal intrigue and relationships, a significant romantic tension also develops, especially with the character of Adele Parabiano. The opening of the novel sets the stage for the return of Andrea di Santasillia to Verona, where his absence has left a notable gap in the social fabric of the town. His arrival creates a buzz among the local elite women, who eagerly contemplate how to win his favor. At the same time, Andrea's demeanor suggests a man burdened by past traumas, particularly the loss of his parents and a complicated relationship with his cardinal uncle. As Andrea navigates these social dynamics, he begins to find solace in the church, where he first encounters a young girl, Adele, who captivates him. Their connection develops amidst Andrea's introspection and complicated feelings about love and societal expectations, hinting at the complexities that will unfold in their relationship throughout the narrative.
