The story follows an unwanted wife’s emotional and physical crisis and the unresolved question of what her husband may come to regret.
Dante repeatedly ignores his wife’s respiratory illness and chooses Sofia’s safety over hers. After further neglect, she leaves her ring behind and cuts contact. His search for her begins only after she has stopped waiting for him and found support beyond the marriage.
