Vendetta: A Story of One Forgotten by Marie Corelli
"Vendetta: A Story of One Forgotten" by Marie Corelli is a novel written in the late 19th century that explores themes of love, betrayal, and vengeance. The story is narrated by Fabio Romani, a man who, despite being declared dead during a cholera outbreak in Naples, is very much alive. His experiences lead him through a harrowing journey as he grapples with the complexities of his relationships, particularly with his wife Nina
and his closest friend, Guido Ferrari. At the start of the book, we find Fabio in a reflective state, describing his life and the surreal circumstances that have led to his current situation. He reveals his wealth and comfortable existence, but the façade begins to crumble as he recounts his encounter with beautiful yet enigmatic women, the passionate bond he shared with Guido, and an impending sense of foreboding that can only be fueled by the atmosphere of guilt and suspicion that reigns around him. As the narrative moves forward, the stage is set for inevitable conflict and tragedy, providing a tantalizing glimpse into a world where love can bloom amidst despair, making readers eager to uncover the fateful twists that await Fabio in his search for identity and resolution.
