Antonia

On her thirty-third birthday, Antonia’s life goes haywire: she leaves her partner, quarrels with her best friend, and even loses her job! And to add to the chaos, she faints on the bus. Is her body trying to tell her something?

Antonia believes she can get her life back on track by avoiding her issues: all she needs to do is reclaim her soap opera role, rescue Radiosa’s marriage, and move all her stuff to her agent Gerturd’s. She really should consider therapy… but instead, she ends up on a date with a guy she met on the bus.

Antonia absolutely has to shoot a self-tape for her new role, but something’s holding her back. A shamanic journey might help her figure things out, if only finding her power animal wasn’t so hard, forcing her to confront her past.

Antonia’s “peaceful” life: handling an audition, avoiding eviction, managing excruciating period pains, dealing with Radiosa’s annoying neighbor and Manfredi’s new suitor. Easy peasy. Oh, and she also has visions of a chicken.

Adelaide is back! The online rumor mill is buzzing loudly for Antonia’s return. Who knows, maybe she can get her job back. Meanwhile, Manfredi makes a small but significant gesture, and a date with Michele might open up a new path for her.

The disappearance of Edelweiss is just the latest of Antonia’s problems as she tries once again to bring order to her life, this time through psychodrama. Will it be enough? Just like in the ending of the book Michele has been writing, it is time for Antonia too to come to terms with her unconventional therapy journey and the consequences of endometriosis.
