"Novelas de la Costa Azul" by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez is a collection of short stories written in the early 20th century. The work presents vivid narratives primarily set along the Mediterranean coast, specifically in the picturesque region known as the Costa Azul. Through skilled storytelling and human warmth, the author explores themes of aging and nostalgia, with characters that likely embody the complexities of life and reminiscence in their twilight years. The opening of "Novelas de la Costa Azul" introduces the aged Duchess of Pontecorvo, who ascends the winding streets of Roquebrune to witness the sunset. Despite her frailty and encumbrance of age, she remains spirited, reveling in the beauty of her surroundings and the memories they evoke. As she reaches a secluded garden, she unexpectedly encounters John Baldwin, a wealthy American, initiating a reflective conversation about the pleasures and melancholy of old age. Their dialogue touches upon lost ambitions, personal sacrifices, and the bittersweet nature of aging, setting the tone for the poignant explorations that follow in the collection.
