| Summary | "Italian Days and Ways" by Anne Hollingsworth Wharton is a travel narrative written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the author's journey through Italy, offering insights into the culture, landscapes, and social life as she explores various cities alongside her companions, Zelphine and Angela. The narrative is enriched with illustrations, reflecting both the beauty of the country and the experiences of the trio. The opening portion of the work introduces the reader to the author's first impressions of Genoa, enveloped in gloomy, rainy weather. As she and her companions navigate the narrow, winding streets of the city, they encounter vibrant local life and engage with its colorful inhabitants, providing a lively account of their interactions. Wharton depicts the character dynamics within the group, highlighting the individual traits of each woman, such as Zelphine's encyclopedic knowledge and Angela's practicality. The atmosphere of Genoa is vividly rendered, as well as the trio’s emotional ups and downs in response to the challenges of travel and their homesickness, setting the stage for the unfolding journey through Italy.
