| Summary | "Novelle e ghiribizzi" by Pietro Fanfani is a collection of short stories likely written in the late 19th century. The work showcases a variety of narratives and themes, often layered with humor and social commentary, reflecting on human nature and society through witty characterization and storytelling. At the start of the collection, the reader is introduced to the character of Don Ficchíno, an infamous flatterer and opportunist from a small Tuscan town. His comical adventures revolve around his insatiable appetite for food and social status, as he juggles invitations to lavish meals from two wealthy families on the same day. This creates a humorous predicament when his gluttony leads him to a disastrous outcome, poking fun at the follies of his character and providing insight into societal behaviors and norms of the time. The narrative sets the tone for the exploration of various eccentric characters and situations that Fanfani employs in his collection. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
