Summary "Prima di partire: nuovi racconti" by Enrico Castelnuovo is a collection of short stories written in the late 19th century. The book opens with a diary entry by the main character, Elena, who reflects on her life and the changes she is facing as she prepares to leave her beloved Venice. It touches upon themes of nostalgia, personal growth, and the challenges of moving to an unfamiliar place in pursuit of new beginnings. The opening portion introduces readers to Elena as she goes through her thoughts and emotions leading up to her departure for Tiflis, where her brother lives. Elena grapples with the uncertainty of leaving everything behind, including her feelings of loneliness, her memories of loved ones, and her perceived lack of direction. She describes her surroundings with deep affection, highlighting her connection to Venice and the bittersweet nature of her imminent journey. As she contemplates her future, her interactions with other characters, such as the eccentric colonnello Struzzi and the reserved professor Verdani, further enrich the narrative, setting the stage for her transformative experiences in the pages to follow.
