JANASA
Seven women meet in Nuragic Sardinia. Some are native to the island, others come from the sea. All have a particular competence, all are faithful to the cult of Mother Earth.
By living together and creating a small society of women, they will help the village that stands not far from their home to prosper.
The talents of the protagonists will inspire the population who will slowly begin to consider them sorceresses, priestesses, healers, seers, women halfway between the human and the divine, creating over time the myth of those who are still called Janas on the island today.
The story is told by Annita to her niece Piera. It is an ancient story that has been passed down for generations. The two women live in Cagliari in the difficult years of the Second World War, but they will have no difficulty in identifying with the story.
