Synopsis
"Tremblingly alive to a sense of delight, and unchilled by disappointment, the young heart welcomes every feeling, not simply painful, with a romantic expectation that it will expand into bliss."
Set on the northern shores of Sicily, related by a tourist visiting the ruins of the family's formerly grand castle, the novel recounts the history of the Mazzini family. Julia, daughter of the Marquis, falls for count Hippolitus, but when promised by her father to another, she attempts to elope with her lover.
