Summary: "Casta diva" by Gerolamo Rovetta is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Gerardo Parvis, a disillusioned ex-minister who is grappling with the complexities of political life and personal relationships. As he navigates his feelings of nostalgia and turmoil, the character of Teo, his dog, serves as a source of comfort and companionship, reflecting the deeper emotional currents present in Gerardo's life. The opening of the novel introduces us to the political landscape and character dynamics that set the stage for the narrative. Gerardo Parvis, recently resigned from his ministerial position, expresses his frustration with the inefficacy and cowardice of his political colleagues. His servant, Prospero, silently attends to him, revealing the dynamics of their relationship. Through their exchanges, we see Gerardo's disdain for political maneuvering contrasted with a sense of loyalty from Prospero. The arrival of Teo, Gerardo's lively dog, elicits a poignant introspection from Gerardo about love and loss, particularly in memory of a departed beloved, Flaviana. This establishes a rich emotional foundation, hinting at themes of memory, loyalty, and the quest for genuine connection amidst the superficiality of political posturing.
