Summary "Donne, madonne e bimbi" by Alfredo Panzini is a collection of short stories written in the early 20th century. The book explores various themes surrounding family, relationships, and the innocence of childhood, through the lens of Italian society at that time. The opening chapter introduces us to the character of Enrico, an engineer returning to Milan, reflecting on his son Lolò and waiting to reunite with his family. The beginning of the narrative revolves around Enrico's journey on a train back to Milan, filled with memories of his little son Lolò and his wife Maria. As he travels, he reminisces about his son's cheerful songs and the small joys of family life, which stand in stark contrast to the weight of his thoughts upon returning home. Enrico is anxious to reconnect with his family after a long absence but is troubled by unexpected emotional turmoil. Upon his arrival and reuniting with his son, Enrico faces mixed emotions, including memories of love and the shadow of a deeper discontent—foreshadowing complex family dynamics to unfold later in the story.
