They’ve pulled me one way and then the other. At times, they’ve left me questioning my whole entire existence. But please don’t think that I’m angry or morose. I’m not.

Uscire dall'austero palazzo Leopardi, lasciarsi alle spalle Recanati e la sua gente pettegola: questo è il desiderio più grande di Paolina, ma anche il più difficile da realizzare. Vive in obbedienza alle rigide regole del padre Monaldo, moralista e conservatore, e della madre Adelaide, ossessionata più dalla religione e dal benessere economico che da quello dei propri figli.
