About the Book
Vittoria BOOK 6 by George Meredith is a historical novel set during a period of political upheaval in 19th-century Italy, focusing on themes of war, loyalty, and personal conflict. The story revolves around characters such as Wilfrid Pierson and Rinaldo Guidascarpi, who are caught in the midst of the social unrest sparked by the Tobacco Riots in Milan. The novel opens with the chaos of these protests against the occupying forces, creating a tense atmosphere as civilians clash with the authorities. As Wilfrid navigates the streets of Milan, he is drawn into the turmoil, meeting key figures like Rinaldo and a woman working in a cigar shop, which highlights the deep divide between the Italian people and their Austrian rulers. As violence escalates, the narrative explores the impact of revolution on both soldiers and citizens, with characters facing difficult choices that test their values and allegiances. Themes of vengeance, loyalty, and the personal costs of war unfold, setting the stage for dramatic political and emotional confrontations.
