Summary "Tolla" by Edmond About is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Tolla, the daughter of Count Alexandre Feraldi, as she navigates her youth in Rome amidst societal expectations, romance, and familial pressures. The narrative unfolds against a backdrop of aristocratic life and explores themes of love, devotion, and the struggles of a young woman coming of age. The opening of "Tolla" introduces readers to the Feraldi family and their esteemed social status in Rome. Count Alexandre, a man dedicated to restoring his family's fortune and reputation, is presented alongside his wife and their two children, Tolla and Victor. The chapter outlines Tolla's upbringing, highlighting her sheltered yet spirited childhood spent among nature and her adoration for her family. As Tolla reaches adolescence, she is sent to a prestigious boarding school where her passion for learning blossoms. The narrative hints at her striking beauty and intelligence, setting the stage for her eventual introduction to high society and the romantic intrigues that will follow. The richness of her character and the details of her family dynamics create an inviting premise for readers interested in character-driven tales of love and societal expectations.
