Summary "Libro allegro" by Antonio Ghislanzoni is a fictional narrative produced in the late 19th century. This humorous work introduces readers to an array of characters in various amusing scenarios, including anthropomorphized animals and social commentary. The book seems to blend lighthearted storytelling with reflections on human nature, focusing on themes of love, companionship, and perhaps, the folly of social conventions. At the start of the narrative, the author addresses the audience, stating that this work is dedicated to the "good jovial ones of the old days" rather than the serious generation of young people. The tale begins with two chickens, Sperongiallo and Nasella, who were raised together and develop an innocent, platonic love. Their touching yet humorous correspondence reveals their struggles after being sold at a market, highlighting both their affection for one another and the comical trials they face in a world dominated by humans. The playful tone is set with various letters exchanged between the two, delineating their experiences and sentiments in a manner that promises to entertain and amuse the reader.
