| Summary | "La vendetta di Zoe: Aristocrazia I" by Vittorio Bersezio is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds during the vibrant Carnival season in Parma, Italy, around the winter of 1853-1854, capturing the excesses of aristocratic life under the reign of the pitiable Duke Carlo III of Bourbon. The novel centers around the character Alfredo Corina, Count of Camporolle, whose entrance into the world of nobility and romance is complicated by his infatuation with the enigmatic baroness, Zoe. Themes of jealousy, social stratification, and political intrigue are likely to emerge as the plot progresses. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to the opulent yet morally corrupt atmosphere of the Duke’s court during a packed theater performance. The Duke’s cynicism and lecherous gaze toward the young ballerinas set the stage for the exploration of social dynamics. We meet Alfredo Corina, who, despite his noble lineage and wealth, struggles with feelings of loneliness and a desire for genuine connection. His fascination with the mysterious baroness of Muldorff begins when she captivates his attention from a neighboring box, leading him into a tumultuous journey fueled by passion and jealousy, especially when he discovers that she is entangled in deeper political machinations. This opening portion sets up a complex interplay of romance and intrigue against a backdrop of societal decadence that invites readers to explore the unfolding drama.
