This play by Roberto Bracco, written in the early twentieth century, centers on a group of bourgeois characters discussing art, philosophy, and their personal lives. The dialogue is conversational and fast paced, reflecting the social dynamics of the era. You will encounter vocabulary related to theater and daily life, alongside some abstract philosophical terminology. The sentences are generally short and direct, making it a manageable read for those looking to practice natural, informal Italian speech patterns within a dramatic context.

Questions about this book

What level of Italian do I need for this book?

The estimate is C1, based on how common the words are and how long the sentences run. It is an approximation, not a test result. With a translation under every sentence you can start one level earlier than you would with a paper copy.

Is this book really free?

Yes. The text is in the public domain and comes from Project Gutenberg, so it costs nothing. In Lingo7 you open the book and read the first page for free; a subscription unlocks the whole library, the audio and the word practice.

How does reading with a translation work?

Lingo7 shows the original sentence and, right under it, the same sentence in your language. Tap a word to see what it means, hear it, and save it for practice. The translation is made while you read, so it works for any book and for 49 languages.

How long does it take to read?

About 1 h 24 min at a native pace, spread over 24 chapters. In a foreign language plan for more: half an hour a day finishes a book of this size in a few weeks.
