Summary "The Title Market" by Emily Post is a fictional novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative introduces readers to the lives of Prince Alessandro and Princess Leonora Sansevero, exploring themes of love, societal expectations, and financial struggles against the backdrop of Italian nobility. The story begins with the Sanseveros' difficulties in maintaining their luxurious lifestyle while navigating financial debts and familial relationships, particularly with the American heiress Nina Randolph, who is slated to arrive. The opening portion of the novel delves into the daily life of Princess Leonora, who is dealing with her husband Alessandro's gambling issues and the couple's financial woes. As they discuss their worries, the prospect of their niece Nina's visit begins to loom large for the princess, who hopes to impress her and introduce her to Italian high society despite their precarious situation. Through various interactions and conversations between the characters, the scene is set for a complex interplay of personal and cultural dynamics, hinting at upcoming conflicts and romantic entanglements. The narrative’s rich descriptions and characterizations invite readers into a world of elegance, turmoil, and the intricacies of love and family obligation.
