The Woman: Malombra is a novel written by Italian author Antonio Fogazzaro and published in 1907. The story is set in Venice and revolves around a young woman named Maria who inherits her father's estate, including a villa on an island in the lagoon. Maria is a sensitive and imaginative woman who is haunted by the memory of her father, who died when she was young. She becomes obsessed with his ghostly presence and begins to experience strange and supernatural phenomena in the villa. As Maria explores the villa and its surroundings, she meets a young man named Guido who is also interested in the estate. Guido is intrigued by Maria's beauty and mysterious aura, but he soon realizes that she is not entirely sane. Maria's obsession with her father's ghost leads her to make dangerous decisions, and Guido must try to save her from herself. The novel is a Gothic romance that explores themes of love, death, and the supernatural. It is known for its vivid descriptions of Venice and its surroundings, as well as its psychological depth and complex characters. The Woman: Malombra is considered one of Fogazzaro's most important works and has been adapted into several films and plays.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
