Una túnica amatista, algo que a los simples mortales estaba prohibido usar, daba un color azulado a su redonda y ancha cara. Sus oscuros cabellos habían sido peinados en cuatro hileras de bucles superpuestos. Bajo aquella frente de semidiós, gesticulaba una cara de mono de feria, cubierta de grasa prematura, que a Ligia le pareció repugnante.

Psychologický román trochu se vymykající Sienkiewiczově tvorbě.

Little Lord Fauntleroy (1885, 1886) by Frances Hodgson Burnett is a beloved children's novel that made a huge impact on the 19th century public, shaping everything from boys' clothing fashions to copyright law. Cedric Errol is a generous, kind, and exemplary middle-class American boy who is suddenly found to be the heir of the Earl of Dorincourt. Saying loving goodbyes to his working-class friends, Cedric goes to England together with his mother to embrace his new fortune. His grandfather, the old earl, is a bitter old man ridden with gout and a foul temper, trusting no one. However the angelic boy elicits a profound transformation in the grandfather, which not only benefits the castle household but the whole populace of the earldom. If only the old man's heart would soften toward Cedric's estranged mother, the family would be healed at last. And when another potential heir to the earldom makes a claim, it seems that everything is lost.... But all things are possible through a child's innocent trust, true friendship, and unconditional love.

Aonia edizioni. Il libro Cuore è costruito come un diario, composto da Enrico, un alunno della terza elementare; alle annotazioni del bambino si intercalano interventi sotto forma di lettera da parte dei genitori e della sorella, oltre a nove racconti, dettati mensilmente dal maestro ad edificazione della giovane scolaresca. Protagonisti di ciascuno di essi sono sempre i fanciulli, ogni volta provenienti da un diversa regione del neonato Regno d'Italia, chiamati a gesti di eccezionale abnegazione ed eroismo, a difesa della patria o della famiglia. Anche nella cornice si può distinguere lo sviluppo di un storia, che si dipana lungo tutto il libro seguendo i ritmi e le scansioni dell'anno scolastico, da ottobre a luglio (Italialibri).
