| Summary | "La plebe, parte I" by Vittorio Bersezio is a social novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative delves into the struggles and complexities of the lower class in Turin, particularly focusing on the harsh realities faced by the impoverished. The book explores themes of poverty, societal obligations, and the human condition through various characters, including a mysterious man whose compassion for a starving child highlights the contrasts within society. At the start of the book, the setting is established as a cold and foggy winter night in Turin, where the depths of urban poverty are vividly depicted. The narrative introduces an unnamed man who walks through the squalid streets, lost in thought, encountering the laments of a young boy begging for money. As he engages with the child, we learn of the boy's tragic background—having no parents and sent out to beg by his grandmother. This interaction sparks something within the man, revealing a shared sense of despair and alienation. The opening sets a somber tone, foreshadowing a story that will explore the interconnected lives of the downtrodden and the moral dilemmas faced by those who are more fortunate.
