Detailed plot synopsis reviews of The Towers of Tuscany |
|---|
What a slut! Remember, Sophia is still a married woman!
By the way, I'm skipping about a 100 or more pages of description in this summary. You want to know the 100+ pages I'm skipping? It's all descriptions of Sophia painting. She recalls a lot of conversations with her dead father, giving her lessons on how to paint. How to paint a bird, or a tree, or a house, or whatever. It's all very fascinating if you enjoy descriptions of one woman, alone, thinking about how to paint. I mean, that kind of stuff must fascinate you like it fascinates me, right?
Pietro, one of Manzini's artist assistants, takes a liking to Sophia. Thinking that Sophia is a man, he feels a homosexual attraction. He pushes Sophia against the wall, pulls down her pants, and prepares to engage in a little gay rape. But when he feels for Sophia's dick, he finds something extraordinary. He realizes Sophia is a woman.

Sophia, realizing her secret might be reveals, blackmails Pietro into silence, saying if he reveals her secret that Sophia will reveal that he's homo. Back in ancient Italy being homo isn't popular like it is today. You don't get your own television show or elected to Congress because of it.
Matteo continues to bone Sophia. It seems everyone in this town-Manzini, Pietro, Francesco, Matteo--knows that Sophia is a woman. Who is left to tell?
Matteo wants to know about Sophia's past. Sophia doesn't want to mention the fact that she is inconveniently married, so she distracts Matteo by masturbating him with her hand. Her painting hand, heh heh.
Then Francesco, the orphan boy, announces that he wants to bone Sophia too. Sophia, tired of everyone trying to stick their dick in her cunny or ass, tells him to f off.
Matteo tells Sophia he wants to marry her. He is already engaged to marry someone else, but the someone else conveniently dies, just as bandits from nowhere conveniently separated Sophia and Marcello, just as wild Italians killed her father for no reason. It's a sudden plot device that feels very contrived.
If someone were to teach this author how to write, they might have told her that if she wants to write convincing events, she has to give them a backstory. Give us a backstory to the Italians who killed Sophia's father. Tell us what they were up to and why. Just suddenly putting killer Italians in a room with her dad feels contrived. I have the same feeling with the sudden announcement that Matteo's fiance suddenly dies.
Sophia agrees to marry Matteo, inconveniently forgetting she is already married. But she has second thoughts when Matteo tells her that once they are married, that she won't be allowed to paint, because remember, in this parallel dimension of Italy, women, for some reason, are not allowed to paint as they were on the planet Earth that we know.
Then Giorgio, Sophia's husband, shows up. How did he know to appear there? Apparently Barducci's former assistant Delgrasso was in town and saw a painting that Sophia did and immediately recognized it as her work, even though her name was not on it, and then told Giorgio she was still alive. How likely is that? Not very, I would say. Is there one way of drawing a bird or a tree that tells everyone "Sophia painted that?" I doubt it.
When Matteo learns that Sophia is married, he gives her up to Giorgio, who takes her home.
