La trovatella di Milano by Carolina Invernizio
"La trovatella di Milano" by Carolina Invernizio is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. Set against the backdrop of Milan, the story revolves around Maria, a beautiful glove maker, and the events that unfold following a fateful encounter with a mysterious masked stranger. Themes of love, betrayal, and social class interplay as the characters navigate their complex lives in a city marked by political turmoil. At the start of
the novel, the midnight bells echo through Milan as Maria prepares to close her shop after a busy day on Carnival's last evening. Just as she is about to leave, a mysterious masked man bursts into her shop, seeking refuge. Their brief encounter ignites a series of events that not only affect their lives but also intertwine with the fates of other characters, including a wealthy count and his daughter, Adriana. As Maria becomes entangled in a web of deception involving the stranger and the charming Diego, the stage is set for a tale of emotional turmoil and the pursuit of identity and recognition.
