"No: Romanzo" by Alfredo Oriani is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story introduces readers to Ida, a young woman who grapples with her harsh and oppressive reality, including a sick mother and the societal expectations placed upon her. Themes of poverty, compassion, and the desire for a meaningful life are intertwined with the struggles of the main character as she confronts her circumstances. The beginning of "No: Romanzo" paints a stark picture of Ida's life through a series of poignant and vivid descriptions. The narrative opens with a conversation between Ida and a woman named Ghita about their lives and challenges, showing the weight of expectation and personal struggle that Ida faces. Readers are drawn into Ida's world, where her sick mother is a central figure, and the young woman is filled with a mix of melancholy and determination. As the story unfolds, it hints at the internal conflicts Ida experiences, from her maternal obligations to her quest for individuality and freedom in a constricting environment.
