the Revue des Deux Mondes and later as a single volume in 1841. The story is
set in Marseilles and Corsica in the early 19th century and explores the theme
of the Corsican vendetta. The protagonist, Orso, is faced with the decision of
whether to avenge his father's death, which he believes was caused by the

does. An Englishwoman named Lydia Nevil tries to dissuade Orso from committing
murder. Other characters include Brandolaccio "Brando" Savelli, a friendly
Corsican outlaw, and Giudice Barricini, the head of the Barricini family. The
novella also features Brusco, Brando's dog, and le Curé, a former theology
student turned outlaw.
