<p><i>My Father, Fortune-tellers &amp; Me: A Memoir</i> is a powerful and witty coming-of-age story of fate versus free will. As the daughter of southern Italian immigrants joined in an acrimonious arranged marriage, Eufemia Fantetti weathered the devastating consequences of her mother's treatment-resistant schizophrenia for years before moving to the West Coast to escape the constant turmoil. In her search for meaning beyond a host of ancestral superstitions malocchio, maledictions and stregheria she writes, cracks jokes, meets counselors, studies the sky for planetary alignment, consults her trusty tarot deck for guidance and visits her dad's psychic healer for a prescription for prescience. Fantetti's story is a darkly hilarious, tender chronicle of family, destiny and resilience.</p>
