| Summary | "Dal primo piano alla soffitta" by Enrico Castelnuovo is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story is set in Venice and revolves around the life of the nobility and their interactions with the common people, centering on the Bollati family and their contemporaries. The narrative likely delves into the themes of societal status, family dynamics, and the juxtaposition of aristocratic life with the struggles of common citizens. The opening of the novel introduces readers to a vibrant scene unfolding on October 7, 1838, during a regatta in Venice, where the preparations at Palazzo Bollati are bustling. Young Leonardo, the heir of the Bollati family, eagerly awaits the spectacle, while his father, Count Zaccaria, discusses the expectations surrounding their participation. The narrative gives us insight into various family members' personalities, such as the optimistic father and the pessimistic mother, Chiaretta, who dreads the influx of guests. This setting establishes a lively backdrop where themes of family pride, societal competition, and personal ambition are brought to life against the rich cultural tapestry of Venice.
