Isolina es una novela de la escritora italiana Dacia Maraini, publicada en 1995. La historia se basa en hechos reales ocurridos en Verona a finales del siglo XIX. Isolina, una joven amante de un teniente, queda embarazada y es obligada a abortar, falleciendo durante el procedimiento. El ejército se ve involucrado y las pruebas son eliminadas, silenciando a los testigos y obstaculizando la investigación. La novela explora temas de injusticia, poder y la opresión de las mujeres en la sociedad italiana de la época.
