The story is set on the fictional island of Micomar, where unusual customs and a unique approach to marriage and society contrast sharply with European norms. The book introduces readers to the protagonist and the peculiarities of this island's culture, involving characters such as Gal-di-fuoco and the local merchant De-Tonnalli, among others. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the island of Micomar, known for its remarkable beauty and distinctive cultural practices. The narrative describes the protagonist's arrival in Carina, the capital, where he is to stay with De-Tonnalli. The townsfolk's customs around marriage are explored, revealing that marriage is obligatory and reflects the community's vigorous morals and practices. The young Gal-di-fuoco, soon to undertake a "giro di nozze," is depicted as both eager and naive, and his interactions with local women set the stage for the exploration of love, courtship, and the comedic misunderstandings that ensue in their unique society.
