Neapolitan Novels Series Elena Ferrante Collection 4 Books Bundle (My Brilliant Friend, The Story of a New Name, Those Who Leave and Those Who Stay, Story of the Lost Child)

Elena Ferrante is a genius. You cannot put any of her books down. Character driven and complex stories. Amazing writer.

I loveElena Ferrante's books, as she's such a close observer of human behaviour. Her books aren't full of excitement but carefully told stories about human dilemmas. The Neopolitan Quartet is her most famous and best loved work I think that was also made into a TV series which retold the tale of two close friends over many years. It's good to the last drop and draws you into its Neopolitan characters and the poor Naples environment where most of it takes place. It was so good that, for a little while afterwards I was at a loss as to what to do with my evenings and I didn't want to let go of the characters. This edition was reasonably priced and is a good edition. I can only say, "if you haven't read these books - read them"!

*Feels need to impress Nino.* "We must wage war against bad books themselves!" Magnifico Elena. Brava.

I finished My Brilliant Friend a month ago on my Kindle and fell in love with it. I decided that I needed to own the physical copy of the Neapolitan novels, but I couldn't find anyone selling them in my country. I'm so happy that I found all of them here, and these are the covers that I prefer over the other version. The items arrived in good condition, and I'm looking forward to finishing the rest of the books!

Bought for my mum. She loved the stories.
