"Sciogli la treccia, Maria Maddalena; romanzo" by Guido da Verona is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story sets in a lavish setting, where gambling and opulence mingle with the excitement of Spanish bullfighting culture. Central to the narrative is Madlen Green, a captivating and enigmatic woman, who draws the attention of a narrator as well as her elegant partner, Lord Pepe, amidst the lively atmosphere of a casino. The opening of the story introduces a vibrant and tumultuous evening where the narrator describes observing a striking woman besotted by the game of "trente et quarante." As she engages fervently in gambling, the narrator becomes enthralled by her beauty and presence. The scene unfolds in the Casino of San Sebastiano, characterized by an air of decadence and anticipation, with the introduction of figures such as the famous torero Bombita, who later captures the attention of the crowd at the bullfighting arena. As the evening progresses, the narrator engages in conversations with Madlen and Lord Pepe, hinting at the complexities of desire, gambling, and the intoxicating allure of life on the edges of society.
