The Transformation of Johanna Sansíleri
Publishing date:11 march 2014
Synopsis:
After the death of her husband, Johanna Sansíleri discovers that Augusto was leading a double life. Every Monday, after spending the weekend with her, under the pretext of work, he spent five days in Madrid with another woman. It was a parallel marriage of over fifteen years about which Johanna didn’t suspect a thing.
The surprise is especially great because all her family and friends saw Augusto as a grey, dull man while Johanna was intelligent, pretty, refi ned, original and unpredictable. After spending some days re-evaluating her life after Augusto’s secret comes to light, she decides to visit her husband’s other wife.
