The story follows Regina, a young bride who has recently moved from her serene home in Sardinia to the bustling city of Rome with her husband Antonio. The narrative explores the clash between her longing for her pastoral roots and the overwhelming reality of urban life, capturing her emotional turbulence as she navigates her new surroundings and relationships. The opening of the novel transports readers into Regina's initial experience as she arrives in Rome, filled with a mix of excitement and emotional trepidation. As Regina journeys to the city, she is overwhelmed by the charm and beauty she has dreamt of, yet she is quickly confronted by the stark differences between her expectations and the reality of life in an unfamiliar environment. The contrast is further emphasized through her interactions with Antonio's family, who bring their own complexities and atmosphere to her newlywed life. From cumbersome train rides to chaotic family introductions, Regina's struggle with homesickness sets the tone for her journey of self-discovery amidst the vibrant yet isolating backdrop of Rome.
