Three Men, one woman and a Virgin Birth

by John Pitt

Anna doesn’t think she needs any lessons in love. She’s a champagne-swilling, hard-living, headstrong opera diva with a voracious appetite for men and a bad habit of always marrying the wrong one. What could anyone teach her?
That’s until she returns to Italy on the eve of her 50th with one big surprise in store. She’s pregnant. But she can’t, or maybe doesn’t, want to remember who the father is.
It certainly isn’t her latest husband, Lionel – an archaeology professor, who thinks a good night is in front of a book. Nor is it his half-brother Patrick – the ultra-vain investment banker with a roving eye, a flattering tongue and bulging wallet to match. And it probably isn’t Constantine – the one man with whom she’s had numerous affairs and plenty of adventures, a man always short of money and ever on the look out for making some.
On the other hand could it be a case of miraculous conception?
So begins her last and greatest role as she comes to terms with life, love… and a baby.
