Days of Abandonment | Elena Ferrante
post image
Pickpick

This was my first Ferrante ❤️. Olga is unflinchingly raw and honest in examining her thoughts and emotions as she ricochets through turmoil when her husband leaves her; her sense of abandonment of her sanity and her identity, as she is left to care for her two young children, is brutal. I wouldn't want to endlessly dissect my characters in interviews if I was Ferrante, everything is already said. #translatedbooks - Thanks Ann Goldstein.

Delphine That book was also my first Ferrante. And I just loved it. Since I read it, I continue to think about Olga and her feelings... And now I have #mybrilliantefriend in my TBR! 8y
EnidBiteEm @Delphine I'm reading Book 2 of the Neapolitan Novels. I find myself thinking of Elena and Lila and how they feel quite frequently! 8y
