L'ultima primavera: romanzo

Marina Negroni stands before a massive gilt‑framed mirror, her flawless silhouette a study in aristocratic poise. Though celebrated for an almost timeless beauty, she rehearses smiles that never quite reach her eyes, sensing a lingering fatigue beneath the surface. The ritual reveals a young woman caught between the expectations of her noble lineage and a restless yearning for something beyond the polished façade of Milan’s elite salons.

Living in the grand Accorsi residence, Marina moves through marble staircases and richly paneled rooms that echo with whispered envy and whispered duties. As the daughter of a widowed countess now wed to a wealthy Neapolitan duke, she enjoys material comforts yet feels the pressure of her privileged station. Determined to carve her own path, she balances the allure of high society with an inner resolve that hints at a forthcoming struggle between duty and desire.
