The story unfolds in the Alpine village of Valdigorgo, where the main character, Carlo Sivori, grapples with a profound sense of despair and disillusionment after an unspecified trauma. His interactions with the Moser family, particularly the convalescing Eugenia and her daughters, suggest themes of familial bonds, personal healing, and the search for purpose amid emotional turmoil. The opening of the novel introduces Carlo, who has recently arrived at Valdigorgo in the hopes of finding solace and rejuvenation. However, his expectations are dashed as he finds himself engulfed in ennui, contrasted by the lively dynamics of the Moser household. While Eugenia struggles with her recovery from a serious illness, Carlo becomes increasingly detached, unable to engage emotionally with those around him. Interactions with the Moser family highlight Carlo's isolation and fading ambition, as he reflects on lost connections and memories, foreshadowing a journey of introspection and potential redemption. Despite his desire to withdraw from life's vitality, the presence of the Moser family elicits fleeting moments of warmth and nostalgia, indicating a struggle between despair and the longing for human connection.
