THE STORY OF THE LOST CHILD PB

Ferrante, Elena

Εκδότης Europa , ISBN 9781787702691

Nothing quite like this has ever been published before," proclaimed The Guardian about the Neapolitan novels in 2014. Against the backdrop of a Naples that is as seductive as it is perilous and a world undergoing epochal change, Elena Ferrante tells the story of a lifelong friendship between two women with unmatched honesty and brilliance. The Story of the Lost Child is the concluding volume in the dazzling saga of two women- the brilliant, bookish Elena, and the fiery, uncontainable Lila.

Both are now adults, with husbands, lovers, aging parents, and children. Their friendship has been the gravitational center of their lives. Both women fought to escape the neighborhood in which they grew up-a prison of conformity, violence, and inviolable taboos.

Elena married, moved to Florence, started a family, and published several well-received books. In this final novel she has returned to Naples, drawn back as if responding to the city's obscure magnetism. Lila, on the other hand, could never free herself from the city of her birth.

She has become a successful entrepreneur, but her success draws her into closer proximity with the nepotism, chauvinism, and criminal violence that infect the neighborhood. Proximity to the world she has always rejected only brings her role as its unacknowledged leader into relief. For Lila is unstoppable, unmanageable, unforgettable.

The four volumes in this series constitute a long remarkable story that readers will return to again and again, and each return will bring with it new revelations.

Ferrante, Elena

Συγγραφέας

Elena Ferrante είναι το λογοτεχνικό ψευδώνυμο μιας σύγχρονης ιταλίδας συγγραφέως που η πραγματική της ταυτότητα δεν έχει αποκαλυφθεί. Το μυθιστόρημά της "L' amore molesto" ("Βάναυση αγάπη", ελλ. εκδ. Perugia, 1997), έγινε ταινία το 1995 από τον σκηνοθέτη Mario Martone. Το επόμενο μυθιστόρημά της, "Μέρες εγκατάλειψης" (ελλ. εκδ. Άγρα, 2004), ήταν ένα από τα πιο επιτυχημένα λογοτεχνικά έργα στην Ιταλία το 2002, στο οποίο βασίστηκε η οµώνυµη ταινία του Μάριο Μαρτόνε. Έχει γράψει µεταξύ άλλων το βιβλίο "La frantumaglia, στο οποίο αφηγείται τη συγγραφική της εµπειρία, καθώς κι ένα διήγηµα για παιδιά". Το 2011 εκδόθηκε το πρώτο βιβλίο της Tετραλογίας της Νάπολης µε τίτλο "Η υπέροχη φίλη µου" (ελλ. εκδ. Πατάκης, 2016) που κατέκτησε παγκοσµίως κοινό και κριτικούς.
