Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Luca and his wife Agata married young but have been separated for many years. She is a professor of feminist studies at a university in Palermo. Luca suggests visiting her to see if she can help Sara learn more about Serafina and the land transfer. Over espressos, Agata explains her work in the history of feminism in Sicily and her passion for giving a voice to the lost women of history. Luca receives a call, and he explains he must leave immediately. Agata offers Sara a place to stay for the night; she has a friend in the consulate who will help replace the passport. After Luca leaves, she tells Sara that Luca is meeting with investors for his restaurant, but she fears they aren’t good people. She and Luca have no children and are married by name only, which is better for her public image. Though Sara is exhausted, Agata insists on taking her through the streets of Palermo, sampling street food and soaking up the nightlife.
Agata asks about Sara’s inquest, and she explains that she only wants to sell the land and get back home.
