Summary

The Neopolitan quartet traces the friendship between Elena and Lila, from their childhood in a poor neighbourhood in Naples to their 30s, when both women are mothers but each has chosen a different path.

Their lives are still inextricably linked, for better or worse, especially when it comes to the drama of a lost child.

Critic reviews

"Ferrante’s project is bold: her books chronicle the inner conflicts of intelligent women.... Her writing has a powerful intimacy...a bona fide literary sensation - the famous writer nobody knows." ( The Guardian)
