Summary "Il Codice di Perelà" by Aldo Palazzeschi is a surreal novel written in the early 20th century. The story introduces the peculiar and ethereal character of Perelà, an "man of smoke," who navigates a strange, fantastical world filled with whimsical dialogues and surreal situations. Through his journey, themes of identity, existence, and societal norms emerge as he interacts with a colorful cast of characters. The opening of the novel presents Perelà as he arrives at a city for the first time and encounters various inhabitants who question his nature and existence. The exchanges are marked by a blend of humor and absurdity, with characters speculating about his form and background, often leading to philosophical and absurd conclusions about the essence of humanity and society. As he engages with citizens, confusion and excitement about his identity unfold, establishing the whimsical tone of the narrative while setting the stage for further explorations of societal perceptions and the nature of self.
