Summary "Nuovi racconti" by Enrico Castelnuovo is a collection of short stories written in the late 19th century. The book appears to explore themes of memory, identity, and human relationships against the backdrop of Italian society during this period. The narrative opens with two main characters, Michele Arsandi and his son Arturo, who are traveling together on a train journey from Turin to Venice. The opening portion introduces Michele and Arturo as they embark on their journey, highlighting a familial bond and generating anticipation about their destination. As they converse about friends and acquaintances from their past, Michele reflects on his memories of Venice, which serve as a point of nostalgia tied to a former love, Amalia Martelli. The dialogue sets the stage for the exploration of reconnections and the passage of time, as Michele contemplates revisiting figures from his past while also attending to his son's youthful enthusiasm for the wonders of Venice. This sets up the narrative for a blend of personal history and the socio-cultural environment of the time. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
