| Summary | "Brandelli" by Olindo Guerrini is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative introduces us to the protagonist reflecting upon his past and experiences, primarily focusing on his literary aspirations and tribulations within the socio-political context of Italy during the period. The book appears to weave themes of personal growth, artistic struggle, and the nuances of life, expressed through the lens of its characters. The opening of "Brandelli" presents the protagonist reminiscing about his life choices, notably his decision to study law, which he only pursued superficially. He recounts a humorous scene of his graduation day, filled with youthful ambition and the carefree nature of his peers. As he moves into the narrative, he expresses his disdain for contemporary Italian poetry and reveals his existential musings, contrasting it with the literary figures and works that left a mark on him. This sets a reflective tone that suggests the protagonist is on a quest for artistic authenticity amid societal expectations, hinting at deeper themes of artistic integrity and the quest for identity.
