Summary "Piccole storie del mondo grande" by Alfredo Panzini is a collection of short stories written in the early 20th century. The stories seem to explore human relationships, personal ambitions, and the intersection of ideals and everyday life. The opening portion centers around the characters Astese and Leuma, suggesting themes of nostalgia, friendship, and the complexities of adult life. The beginning of the collection introduces the character of Vittorio Astese, reflecting on his past friendship with Leuma, whom he has not seen for seven years. As Astese expresses his yearning for the carefree days of youth and the camaraderie he once shared with Leuma, the narrative hints at the contrasting paths their lives have taken. When the two friends finally reconnect during a train journey, the cheerful reunion is juxtaposed with Astese's growing concerns for Leuma's current state of happiness. Through the dialogue and interactions between the characters, the opening sets the stage for deeper explorations of contentment, ambition, and the struggles between personal dreams and societal expectations.
