Summary: "I suicidi di Parigi" by Ferdinando Petruccelli della Gattina is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds through the lens of the lives surrounding a wedding celebrated by Doctor Count Gennaro di Nubo, as he prepares for the marriage of his niece Regina. The narrative hints at themes of romantic entanglements, societal expectations, and the allure of wealth, showing conflict between genuine affection and superficiality. The opening of the novel introduces readers to a gathering at the countryside home of Doctor di Nubo, who is celebrating the upcoming marriage of his niece with a lavish dinner. The guests exhibit envy and curiosity towards the expensive wedding gifts, especially from the affluent fiancé, Alberto Dehal. As the dinner progresses, the interactions between characters reveal underlying tensions and dynamics, particularly focusing on Regina’s indifferent demeanor towards her presents and an unspoken attraction to another guest, Marco di Beauvois. The chapter concludes with a sense of mystery, as Regina and her maid, Lisa, stealthily leave the house at night, revealing the early threads of a romantic subplot that will unfold throughout the story.
