\<p\>Her journey leads her back to her ancestral village, where she finds the open arms of family—and also uncovers the lingering shadows of the malocchio, omertà, rigid Catholicism, and a past of abject poverty, arranged marriage, patriarchal control, the Mafia, and a suspicion of sexual abuse\.\</p\>
