habitual abuse
According to Barata’s writing, Anna’s ordeal began long before her death. Alberto mistreated her while her sentimental relationship lasted, which lasted more than 1 year. Alberto was taking Anna away from her friends and also from her parents, he isolated her. She displayed physical and psychological violence on the young woman, 15 years his junior, that broke her emotionally.
