Summary "La volpe di Sparta" by Luciano Zùccoli is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers around the characters Vittorina Ornavati and Celso Ornavati, exploring themes of social class, ambition, and relationships within the backdrop of Italian society during that period. The story appears to delve into the dynamics of personal interactions, desires, and societal expectations, particularly as they relate to marriage and social status. The opening of the novel introduces us to Vittorina, who is searching for her trusted shop assistant, Baganella, in a bustling woolen goods store. Distracted by her husband Celso's laid-back demeanor and the presence of the elegant new assistant, Filippeschi, Vittorina exhibits signs of infidelity in her thoughts. As she interacts with these characters, the reader is drawn into the themes of intrigue, societal norms, and the superficiality of appearances. The dynamic between Vittorina and Celso sets the stage for exploring deeper social commentary as the story unfolds, hinting at potential tensions arising from their juxtaposed lifestyles and social perceptions.
