Lila married at sixteen and has a young son; she has left her husband and the comforts her marriage brought and now works as a common laborer. Elena has left the neighborhood, earned her college degree, and published a successful novel, all of which has opened the doors to a world of learned interlocutors and richly furnished salons. Both women are pushing against the walls of a prison that would have seen them living a life of misery, ignorance, and submission. They are afloat on the great sea of opportunities that opened up for women during the 1970s. And yet, they are still very much bound to each other in a book that \"shows off Ferrante's strong storytelling ability and will leave readers eager for the final volume of the series\" (\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"One of modern fiction's richest portraits of a friendship.\" --\u003ci\u003eNPR\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eElena Ferrante\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eThe Days of Abandonment\u003c\/i\u003e (Europa, 2005), which was made into a film directed by Roberto Faenza, \u003ci\u003eTroubling Love\u003c\/i\u003e (Europa, 2006), adapted by Mario Martone, and \u003ci\u003eThe Lost Daughter\u003c\/i\u003e (Europa, 2008), soon to be a film directed by Maggie Gyllenhaal.
