De dertienjarige Giovanna leidt een perfect leven. Ze woont in een van de beste wijken van Napels, haar ouders dragen haar op handen en hebben haar opgevoed tot een lief en gehoorzaam kind dat netjes praat en op school goede cijfers haalt. Dat verandert allemaal wanneer ze haar vader tegen haar moeder hoort zeggen dat Giovanna steeds meer begint te lijken op zijn zus. Er is in hun gezin geen groter kwaad denkbaar dan tante Vittoria. Giovanna is geschokt en nieuwsgierig tegelijk en besluit Vittoria op te zoeken. Haar tante woont in het arme deel van Napels en blijkt een volkse, grofgebekte vrouw te zijn. Het enige wat ze wil, is praten over de ware aard van Giovanna's ouders. Langzaam valt het beeld van het volmaakte gezin in gruzelementen. Vanaf nu moet Giovanna balanceren tussen trouw aan haar ouders en de nieuwe vriendschap met haar tante - het zijn Giovanna's eerste stappen naar volwassenheid. Deze nieuwe roman van Elena Ferrante bevestigt opnieuw haar grote en unieke talent: als geen ander is ze in staat om heel gedetailleerd vriendschappen en relaties tussen vrouwen neer te zetten. Haar vaak rebelse personages zijn zo levendig beschreven dat je al snel het idee krijgt dat je ze al je hele leven kent. 'Het leugenachtige leven van volwassenen' doet verlangen naar meer.

The New York Times–bestseller set in a divided Naples—now a Netflix original series—from the acclaimed author of My Brilliant Friend and The Lost Daughter. A BEST BOOK OF 2020 The Washington Post·O, The Oprah Magazine·TIME Magazine·NPR·People Magazine·The New York Times Critics·The Guardian·Electric Literature·Financial Times·Times UK·Irish Times·New York Post·Kirkus Reviews·Toronto Star·The Globe and Mail·Harper’s Bazaar·Vogue UK·The Arts Desk Giovanna’s pretty face is changing, turning ugly, at least so her father thinks. Giovanna, he says, looks more like her Aunt Vittoria every day. But can it be true? Is she really changing? Is she turning into her Aunt Vittoria, a woman she hardly knows but whom her mother and father clearly despise? Surely there is a mirror somewhere in which she can see herself as she truly is. Giovanna is searching for her reflection in two kindred cities that fear and detest one another: Naples of the heights, which assumes a mask of refinement, and Naples of the depths, a place of excess and vulgarity. She moves from one to the other in search of the truth, but neither city seems to offer answers or escape. “Another spellbinding coming-of-age tale from a master.” —People Magazine, Top 10 Books of 2020 “The literary event of the year.” —Elle “Ms. Ferrante once again, with undiminished skill and audacity, creates an emotional force field that has at its heart a young girl on the brink of womanhood.” —The Wall Street Journal

As seen in the New York Times Book Review. Set in the passionate, intense, and crumbling neighborhood known as the Spanish Quarter of Naples, comes a tale of two students searching for love and belonging in the city they so desperately want to call home. Years after leaving Naples with a broken heart, Heddi receives an email from her first love. Although she now lives in New Zealand, just the thought of the Spanish Quarter’s narrow, winding streets sparks the pain of longing. Heddi had found her place in that city built on Roman ruins and set against a sleeping volcano. A place she wants to call home despite being l’americana or the American. For Heddi’s group of university friends, Naples is either a refuge from their familial responsibilities or an entryway to a wider world. But for all of them, Naples was their real university of life: the setting of their unrestrained youth. When Heddi first met Pietro at a party hosted by her bohemian roommates, she was inexplicably drawn to the serious geology student. Despite coming from wildly different backgrounds—Heddi, a nomadic American; Pietro, an Italian farm boy—the two fell into a liberating romance. She was searching for the roots she never had, while he tried to escape his. Yet even after the two were doomed to part ways, their story isn’t finished just yet. Inspired by her own 10-year search for belonging in Naples, author Heddi Goodrich gives readers a passionate tale of a life caught between two worlds and a heartfelt ode to first love—of a place, of a person— where languages and cultures collide while dreams soar and crash in unexpected ways.

A woman goes home to Naples after her mother’s mysterious death in a “tour de force” by the New York Times–bestselling author of My Brilliant Friend (Seattle Times). Following her mother’s untimely and unexplained drowning, which was preceded by a series of strange phone calls, forty-five-year-old Delia leaves Rome and embarks on a voyage of discovery through the beguiling yet often hostile streets of her native Naples. She is searching for the truth about her family and the men in her mother’s life, past and present, including an abusive husband. What she discovers will be more unsettling than she imagines, but will also reveal truths about herself, in this psychological mystery marked by “tactile, beautifully restrained prose” (Publishers Weekly) about mothers and daughters and the complicated knot of lies and emotions that binds them. “Ferrante’s polished language belies the rawness of her imagery.” —The New Yorker “With the quick-paced mystery guiding the story, Delia explores her relationship with her mother, unraveling memories and secrets repressed since childhood and coming to terms with an upbringing filled with jealousy and violence . . . Troubling Love is vivid and powerful.” —Library Journal

Leda is a middle-aged, divorced mother devoted to her work as an English professor. After the departure of her grown-up daughters, she takes a holiday on the Italian coast. But after a few days things become unsettling; on the beach she encounters a family whose brash behaviour proves menacing. Leda is overwhelmed by memories of the difficult and unconventional choices she made as a mother and their consequences for herself and her family. The tale of a woman's rediscovery of herself soon becomes the story of a ferocious confrontation with the past. The Lost Daughter is a profound exploration of the conflicting emotions that tie women to their children. Elena Ferrante was born in Naples. She is the author of seven novels: The Days of Abandonment, Troubling Love, The Lost Daughter, and the quartet of Neapolitan Novels: My Brilliant Friend, The Story of a New Name, Those Who Leave and Those Who Stay, and The Story of the Lost Child. Fragments, a selection of interviews, letters and occasional writings by Ferrante, will be published in early 2016. She is one of Italy's most acclaimed authors. Ann Goldstein has translated all of Elena Ferrante's work. She is an editor at the New Yorker and a recipient of the PEN Renato Poggioli Translation Award. 'Ferrante's gift for psychological horror renders it immediate and visceral.' New Yorker 'This superb and scary Italian writer...has blown the lid off tempestuous parent-child relations.' Seattle Times 'So refined, almost translucent, that it seems about to float away, in the end this piercing novel is not so easily dislodged from the memory.' Boston Globe 'It's Leda's voice that's hypnotic, and it's the writing that makes it that way. Ferrante can do a woman's interior dialogue like no one else, with a ferocity that is shockingly honest, unnervingly blunt.' Booklist 'Ferrante's prose is stunningly candid, direct and unforgettable. From simple elements, she builds a powerful tale of hope and regret.' Publishers Weekly ‘Ferrante’s uncompromising directness and her unflinching gaze cannot be faulted.’ Age/Sydney Morning Herald ‘With cold determination, Ferrante conveys both the selfishness and the courage that comes with admitting your own maternal shortcomings.’ New Zealand Listener

Lumea interioară a Giovannei se prăbușește când își aude tatăl spunând că fața ei își pierde drăgălășenia și începe să semene cu cea a disprețuitei mătuși Vittoria. Viața ei devine o căutare chinuitoare a oglinzii în care să se poată vedea cu adevărat. Giovanna se caută pe sine în două orașe înrudite ce se urăsc reciproc: orașul Napoli al înălțimilor și al rafinamentului și același oraș, dar al adâncurilor, un loc al excesului și al vulgarității. Fata se mișcă între cele două realități înainte și înapoi, fără a găsi răspunsuri sau o cale de a se salva, ajungând în schimb la o maturizare pe care nu a dorit-o și care nu e nici pe departe atât de frumoasă pe cât a crezut ea. „Am crescut într-o lume în care părea normal ca bărbații (tați, frați, iubiți) să aibă dreptul să te lovească pentru a te corija, să te educe ca femeie, în fine, pentru că-ți voiau binele... Puterea masculină, fie că e exercitată în mod grosolan, fie politicos, vrea să ne subordoneze în continuare. Prea multe femei sunt umilite în fiecare zi, și nu doar în plan simbolic." Elena Ferrante „Fanii Tetralogiei Napolitane vor regăsi și în acest roman temele la care Ferrante se întoarce obsesiv: tensiunile dintre clasele sociale, suprapunerea frumuseții și a vulgarității, banii, prietenia dintre femei, relațiile dintre mame și fiice."

L'autora de la saga «L'amiga genial» torna per recordar-nos per què fascina a 30.000.000 de lectors en 42 països i per què és l'enigma més gran de la literatura actual. «Dos anys abans de marxar de casa, el meu pare va dir a la meva mare que jo era molt lletja.» Així comença aquesta novel·la extraordinària sobre el descobriment de la mentida, de l'amor i del sexe, narrada per la inoblidable Giovanna, una jove que s'entesta a conèixer la seva tieta Vittoria, incomprensiblement desapareguda de les converses i dels àlbums de fotografies familiars. Amb això desencadenarà, sense saber-ho, l'enfonsament de la seva família intel·lectual i burgesa, perfecta només en aparença. Mestra absoluta de la intriga, Ferrante nodreix la trama de sorpreses i lliga prodigiosament la misteriosa història familiar i amorosa a un braçalet que passa de mà en mà. No hi ha ningú com l'autora per descriure la complexitat de les passions humanes i totes les intermitències del pensament i del cor. Ressenyes: «La veu de Ferrante ens guia, ens sacseja, ens arrossega [...] i ens fa estimar i odiar cadascun dels seus personatges. La Giovanna no pot deixar de mirar. Nosaltres tampoc: volem, hem de saber, costi el que costi.» Antonella Lattanzi, La Stampa «La revelació més transcendent de la narrativa europea durant l'últim quart de segle.» Robert Saladrigas, La Vanguardia «A la meva tauleta de nit hi tinc els diaris de Virginia Woolf, els relats de Txékhov i les novel·les d'Elena Ferrante.» Leïla Slimani «Una força evocadora, despietada i inèdita fins avui.» Titti Marrone, Il Mattino «Aquesta vegadaFerrante va directa a guanyar el Premi Strega. [...] Una nova saga imprescindible.» Davide Turrini, Il Fatto Quotidiano «La seva veu narrativa té un timbre inequívoc i personalíssim: és capaç de [...] crearun jo que inunda la pàgina fins a tornar-se de carn i ossos davant dels nostres ulls.» Laura Fortini, Il Manifesto «La protagonista està tan ben dibuixada i el seu patiment és tan palpable que ens fa desitjar la redempció, o almenys una mica de pau per a aquesta ànima amiga, pròxima, familiar, germana. Una gran novel·la, densa i complexa, per llegir subratllant cada pàgina, amb una profunditat que provoca vertigen.» Critica Letteraria «Les novel·les d'Elena Ferrante m'han lligat a la butaca, llegint i celebrant.» Juan Marsé «Res del que llegim sobre Ferrante ens prepara per a la ferocitat de les seves novel·les.» The New York Times «Soc fan de les seves novel·les.» Zadie Smith «Els seus personatges femenins són veritables obres d'art.» El País
