| Summary | "Pieni italialainen" by Johanna Spyri is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around a young boy named Riko, who is the son of an Italian man living in a secluded village in the Upper Engadine. The narrative unfolds against a backdrop of nature and simple village life, exploring themes of childhood, friendship, and the search for identity and belonging. The opening of the book introduces the reader to a quiet village named Sils and paints a vivid image of Riko's humble home and his strong bond with his father, "the Italian." Their daily life is structured around the father's work and Riko's innocent explorations and interactions, especially with a girl named Stineli, who becomes his close friend. As the narrative progresses, Riko's fascination with music blooms, spurred by his father's singing and playing, epitomizing the tender moments of their family life. However, the tranquility is disrupted by a tragic event, setting the stage for Riko's journey of growth and self-discovery amidst loss and yearning for something beyond his immediate world.
