| Summary | "La Carrozza di tutti" by Edmondo De Amicis is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative explores social interactions and observations among diverse classes of people using the public transport of a tram as a microcosm of society. The main character, who appears to be a keen observer of human nature, reflects on the relationships and contrasts he witnesses among the passengers. At the start of the story, set in January 1896, the narrator recounts a ride on a tram in Turin, reflecting on the social dynamics and encounters within this shared space. He notices a mix of passengers, from well-dressed individuals to a humble farmer and a poor girl, all interacting without the usual class separations. This inspires him to consider writing a book about these characters, leading him to focus on an impoverished couple he frequently observes together, who share a silent yet deep connection. Throughout his observations, he notes various quirks of passengers, interactions influenced by social status, and the lively atmosphere of the tram, ultimately culminating in a realization that the tram serves as a unique reflection of society itself.
