| Summary | "Le vergini delle rocce" by Gabriele D'Annunzio is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative explores themes of beauty, despair, and the interplay of human emotions through the story of three noble sisters who are depicted as trapped by their circumstances and yearning for liberation. The intriguing mix of psychological depth and rich, poetic language invites readers into a world brimming with existential inquiries. At the start of the novel, the narrator reflects on the lives of three extraordinary young women—Massimilla, Anatolia, and Violante—who are confined within a desolate yet opulent family estate. As they await the arrival of a long-absent friend, their thoughts reveal the internal struggles and desires that bind them in sorrowful competition for love and destiny. Each sister articulates her unique longing through poetic introspection, shedding light on the universal quest for passion, identity, and freedom. This prologue establishes a haunting atmosphere that sets the stage for the unfolding drama of their intertwined fates. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
