"Vestigia. Vol. I." by George Fleming is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Bernardino de Rossi, a young man who has recently been dismissed from his clerical position at the Telegraph Office in Leghorn. Facing disappointment and societal challenges, he grapples with his identity and relationships, particularly with his mother and the young woman Italia, who holds a special place in his heart. The opening of the novel depicts Bernardino's last moments at the Telegraph Office as he faces dismissal, revealing his inner turmoil and the weight of his situation. As he exits, he reflects on his former colleagues and, after a cold walk home, encounters his mother, who anxiously awaits his return. Their conversation touches on family dynamics and expectations, with Bernardino contemplating his next steps, including seeking work on the docks. The narrative sets the stage for deeper exploration of personal ambitions, social class, and the intertwining lives of Bernardino and Italia as the story unfolds.
