‘Voarchadumia’, the first work by the journalist and art historian Carla Isabella Elena Cace, is in bookshops from today, which promises to fascinate readers with an engaging journey through mystery, history and alchemy. This gripping novel, set on two temporal planes – an undefined Roman contemporaneity and the 16th century in Venice – explores the profound connection between past and present through the eyes of two female protagonists: Isabella and Loredana Tron.

Isabella, through the pages of a diary, reveals to her niece Lea the experiences she lived through regressive hypnosis, which convince her to have lived a previous life in the role of an extraordinary historical figure: Loredana Tron, the first woman to become Master of a alchemical order, the Voarchadumia, operating in 16th century Venice. In parallel, the novel follows the events of Loredana Tron herself, an enigmatic and powerful character, whose existence is intertwined with real figures, occult rites, symbols hidden in the works of Titian and Giorgione, extreme experiments and the devastating Black Plague that struck Venice. The ending reserves a surprising revelation, which ties together the threads between past and present.

With an enveloping narrative, Voarchadumia (Idrovolante Edizioni) explores the secret universe of alchemy, love, power and the eternal search for the profound meaning of life. The novel stands out not only for its historical richness, but also for the intertwining of mysticism, art and science, offering a fascinating and timeless reading experience. Carla Isabella Elena Cace, journalist, essayist and art historian, with this book confirms her passion for the mysteries of the past, for art, for Venice, and her ability to tell compelling stories that mix reality and fiction. Voarchadumia is a novel that invites readers to reflect on the great questions of human existence, through the gaze of two courageous and visionary women. The volume is available in bookstores and online stores starting today.
