"Vittoria - Complete" by George Meredith is a historical novel set during the Italian Risorgimento, a time of political and social upheaval aimed at unifying Italy. The story follows key characters, including Carlo Ammiani, a passionate idealist dedicated to Italy's freedom, and Vittoria, a determined and talented singer with ties to the revolutionary cause. The novel opens on Monte Motterone, where five Italians ascend the mountain to take in the breathtaking view of the Lombard plain. As they climb, they discuss the political climate, particularly the involvement of King Charles Albert in the national struggle. The characters are introduced with great attention to detail, each revealing their personal motivations and dreams. A brewing conspiracy for revolution is hinted at, led by the wise and experienced Agostino, while Vittoria's role in an upcoming event in Milan becomes central. As the narrative progresses, it weaves themes of love, loyalty, and patriotism with the larger goal of Italian unity, exploring the tension between personal desires and national duty. The prose vividly depicts the characters' inner lives and the landscape, setting the stage for a dramatic tale of political intrigue and personal sacrifice.
