Beginning in the 1950s in a poor but vibrant neighborhood on the outskirts of Naples, Elena Ferrante’s four-volume story spans almost sixty years, as its main characters, the fiery and unforgettable Lila and the bookish narrator, Elena, become women, wives, mothers, and leaders, all the while maintaining a complex and at times conflicted friendship. This first novel in the series follows Lila and Elena from their fateful meeting as ten-year-olds through their school years and adolescence.
Through the lives of these two women, Ferrante tells the story of a neighborhood, a city, and a country as it is transformed in ways that, in turn, also transform the relationship between two women.

Very slow and very dense writing, but I got quite into it towards the end. Don't think I could read the entire quartet though.
Elena Ferrante goitizenaren atzean nor ezkutatzen den zehazki ez dakigun arren, deskribapenetarako gaitasun paregabea duen idazle batekin topo egiten dugu.
Nik italieraz irakurri nituen tetralogia honetako lau liburuak baina Igela argitaletxeak euskarara itzulita argitaratu ditu. Napoli inguruak eta protagonistaren bilakaera gertu gertutik ezagutzeko aukera ematen digu testuak, behin eta berriz itzultzeko moduko bidaia polit polit bat!
