The story revolves around the interactions of a group of university students and their professor during a festive gathering at the professor's villa as they navigate themes of love, loss, and existential contemplation. The main character, Fausto Lamberti, returns to the gathering to confront his feelings for Argìa Pisani, the professor’s daughter, and to address the complex dynamics that arise from their past. At the start of the novel, a festive dinner gathers students and faculty at the home of Professor Pisani as autumn settles in. The atmosphere is filled with joy and anticipation, yet an underlying tension looms over Fausto and Argìa, who have a complicated romantic history. Fausto's prolonged absence has stirred doubts and regrets between them, while the professor hopes for Argìa to regain her previous happiness. As the evening progresses, a discussion of life's fragility surfaces when Don Paolo, a family friend, suffers a health scare, illustrating the novel's exploration of mortality and the emotional landscape that binds its characters together.
