Please forgive the 1980s soap opera-esque cover designs, as Elena Ferrante's four Neapolitan novels are literary masterpieces. Stunning in scope and execution, Ferrante renders the lives of two Neapolitan women with precision, care, and complete honesty. Following Lena and Lila's friendship from their 1950s girlhood to their old age, she simultaneously tells the story about the transformation of a friendship, a neighborhood, and a nation.
