She becomes an apostate, or someone who renounces their religious beliefs, and embarks on a journey of self-discovery.Along the way, Bianca meets a group of anarchists who introduce her to their way of life. She becomes involved in their cause and falls in love with one of their leaders, a man named Carlo. However, Bianca's past catches up with her and she is forced to confront her family and the church.A Righteous Apostate explores themes of freedom, individuality, and the struggle between tradition and modernity. Lanza's writing is characterized by its vivid descriptions of Italian landscapes and society, as well as its sympathetic portrayal of Bianca's journey.
