"Farewell, Nikola" by Guy Boothby is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Richard Hatteras, his wife, and their friend Gertrude Trevor, who are visiting Venice. In this atmospheric setting, they encounter Doctor Nikola, a mysterious figure from Richard's past, setting the stage for intrigue and explorations of character and morality. The opening of the novel introduces Hatteras's nostalgia for Venice, a city cherished by both him and his wife, particularly as they have previously spent their honeymoon there. As they enjoy their time in the café at Saint Mark's square, Hatteras's sense of tranquility is interrupted when he spots Nikola. The narrative delves into Hatteras’s conflicted feelings towards Nikola, who had played a villainous role in his past. A sense of foreboding is palpable as Nikola approaches; past animosities resurface during polite conversation, creating a tension that hints at the complex and dark themes to unfold in their interactions. The chapter highlights the dynamics between the characters, including Miss Trevor’s curious reaction to Nikola, setting the stage for deeper connections and revelations as the story progresses.
