Reviews
Praise for Elena Ferrante and The Neapolitan Novels "Everyone should read anything with Ferrante's name on it." -The Boston Globe "Ferrante's novels are intensely, violently personal, and because of this they seem to dangle bristling key chains of confession before the unsuspecting reader." - James Wood , The New Yorker "One of the more nuanced portraits of feminine friendship in recent memory." - Megan O'Grady , Vogue "Amazing! My Brilliant Friend took my breath away. If I were president of the world I would make everyone read this book. It is so honest and right and opens up heart to so much. Reading Ferrante reminded me of that child-like excitement when you can't look up from the page, when your eyes seem to be popping from your head, when you think: I didn't know books could do this!" - Elizabeth Strout, author of Olive Kitteridge "Elena Ferrante will blow you away." - Alice Sebold, author of The Lovely Bones "Ferrante's emotional and carnal candor are so potent." - Janet Maslin , The New York Times "I like the Italian writer, Elena Ferrante, a lot. I've been reading all her work and all about her." - John Waters , actor and director ""Elena Ferrante tackles girlhood and friendship with amazing force."- Gwenyth Paltrow "Elena Ferrante may be the best contemporary novelist you've never heard of"- The Economist "[Ferrante's Neapolitan Novels] don't merely offer a teeming vision of working-class Naples, with its cobblers and professors, communists and mobbed-up businessmen, womanizing poets and downtrodden wives; they present one of modern fiction's richest portraits of a friendship." - John Powers , Fresh Air, NPR "Ferrante's freshness has nothing to do with fashion…it is imbued with the most haunting music of all, the echoes of literary history." - The New York Times Book Review "Elena Ferrante's THE STORY OF A NEW NAME, book two in her Naples series. Two words. Read it." - Ann Hood , author of The Obituary Writer "Ferrante writes with a ferocious, intimate urgency." - Susanna Sonnenberg , author of Her Last Death: A Memoir " The Days of Abandonment is a powerful, heartrending novel." - Jhumpa Lahiri, author of The Lowlands "I am such a fan of Ferrante's work, and have been for quite a while." - Jennifer Gilmore , author of The Mothers "No one has a voice quite like Ferrante's. Her gritty, ruthlessly frank novels roar off the page with a barbed fury, like an attack that is also a defense…Imagine if Jane Austen got angry and you'll have some idea of how explosive these works are." - John Freeman , The Australian "The women's fraught relationship and shifting fortunes are the life forces of the poignant book" - Publisher's Weekly "An engrossing, wildly original contemporary epic about the demonic power of human (and particularly female) creativity checked by the forces of history and society." - The Los Angeles Review of Books, "Ferrante's writing has no limits, is willing to take every thought forward to its most radical conclusion and backward to its most radical birthing." - James Wood, The New Yorker "Everyone should read anything with [Elena Ferrante's] name on it." - The Boston Globe, "Ferrante's writing has no limits, is willing to take every thought forward to its most radical conclusion and backward to its most radical birthing." James Wood, The New Yorker "Everyone should read anything with [Elena Ferrante's] name on it." The Boston Globe, Praise for Elena Ferrante and the Neapolitan Novels "A large, captivating, amiably peopled bildungsroman."--James Wood, The New Yorker "One of modern fiction's richest portraits of a friendship."--John Powers, NPR's Fresh Air "Elena Ferrante is one of the great novelists of our time."--Roxana Robinson, The New York Times Book Review "Compelling, visceral and immediate...The Neapolitan novels are a tour de force."--Jennifer Gilmore, The Los Angeles Times "It took my breath away...so honest and right and opens up heart to so much."--Elizabeth Strout, writer "The Neapolitan novel cycle is an unconditional masterpiece."--Jhumpa Lahiri, writer "Everyone should read anything with Ferrante's name on it."--Eugenia Williamson, The Boston Globe "Ferrante's own writing has no limits, is willing to take every thought forward to its most radical conclusion and backwards to its most radical birthing."­--The New Yorker "One of the more nuanced portraits of feminine friendship in recent memory."--Megan O'Grady, Vogue "It's just hypnotic. I could not stop reading it or thinking about it."--Hillary Clinton "Ferrante tackles girlhood and friendship with amazing force."--Gwyneth Paltrow, actor "Ferrante's writing seems to say something that hasn't been said before in a way so compelling its readers forget where they are, abandon friends and disdain sleep."--Joanna Biggs, The London Review of Books "Ferrante has written about female identity with a heft and sharpness unmatched by anyone since Doris Lessing."--Elizabeth Lowry, The Wall Street Journal "No one has a voice quite like Ferrante's. Her gritty, ruthlessly frank novels roar off the page with a barbed fury, like an attack that is also a defense...Imagine if Jane Austen got angry and you'll have some idea of how explosive these works are."--John Freeman, writer "When I read the Neapolitan novels I find that I never want to stop."--Molly Fischer, The New Yorker "Dazzling...stunning...an extraordinary epic."--Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times "Spectacular."--Maureen Corrigan, NPR's Fresh Air "What words do you save? Here's your chance to bring them out, like the silver for the wedding of the first-born: genius, tour de force, masterpiece. They apply to the work of Elena Ferrante...her magnificent Neapolitan quartet seems to me to be the greatest achievement in fiction of the post-war era."--Charles Finch, The Chicago Tribune "We are dealing with masterpieces here, old-fashioned classics, filled with passion and pathos...The sheer power of her books is a challenge to the chilly, dour craftsmanship of too many 21st century literary novels."--Joe Klein, TIME Magazine "The saga is both comfortingly traditional and radically fresh, it gives readers not just what they want, but something more than they didn't know they craved...through this fusion of high and low art, Ms. Ferrante emerges as a 21st-century Dickens."--The Economist "Ferrante's accomplishment in these novels is to extract an enduring masterpiece from dissolving margins, from the commingling of self and other, creator and created, new and old, real and whatever the opposite of real may be...Ferrante's voice is very much her own, but its force is communal."--Judith Shulevitz, The Atlantic "Ferrante adumbrates the mysterious beauty and brutality of personal experience."--Rachel Cusk, The New York Times Book Review

Synopsis
A novel in the bestselling quartet about two very different women and their complex friendship: "Everyone should read anything with Ferrante's name on it" ( The Boston Globe ). The follow-up to My Brilliant Friend , The Story of a New Name continues the epic New York Times -bestselling literary quartet that has inspired an HBO series, and returns us to the world of Lila and Elena, who grew up together in post-WWII Naples, Italy. In The Story of a New Name , Lila has recently married and made her entrée into the family business; Elena, meanwhile, continues her studies and her exploration of the world beyond the neighborhood that she so often finds stifling. Marriage appears to have imprisoned Lila, and the pressure to excel is at times too much for Elena. Yet the two young women share a complex and evolving bond that is central to their emotional lives and a source of strength in the face of life's challenges. In these Neapolitan Novels, Elena Ferrante, "one of the great novelists of our time" ( The New York Times ), gives us a poignant and universal story about friendship and belonging, a meditation on love and jealousy, freedom and commitment--at once a masterfully plotted page-turner and an intense, generous-hearted family saga. "Imagine if Jane Austen got angry and you'll have some idea of how explosive these works are."-- The Australian "Brilliant . . . captivating and insightful . . . the richness of her storytelling is likely to please fans of Sara Gruen and Silvia Avallone."-- Booklist (starred review), Now an HBO series, the follow-up to My Brilliant Friend in the New York Times bestselling Neapolitan quartet about two friends growing up in post-war Italy is a rich, intense, and generous-hearted family epic by Italy's most beloved and acclaimed writer, Elena Ferrante, "one of the great novelists of our time." (Roxana Robinson, The New York Times ) In The Story of a New Name , Lila has recently married and made her enter e into the family business; Elena, meanwhile, continues her studies and her exploration of the world beyond the neighborhood that she so often finds stifling.

Ferrante is one of the world's great storytellers. With the Neapolitan quartet she has given her readers an abundant, generous, and masterfully plotted page-turner that is also a stylish work of literary fiction destined to delight readers for many generations to come., In 2012, Elena Ferrante's My Brilliant Friend introduced readers to the unforgettable Elena and Lila, whose lifelong friendship provides the backbone for the Neapolitan Novels. The Story of a New Name is the second book in this series. With these books, which the New Yorker's James Wood described as "large, captivating, amiably peopled...a beautiful and delicate tale of confluence and reversal," Ferrante proves herself to be one of Italy's most accomplished storytellers. She writes vividly about a specific neighborhood of Naples from the late-1950s through to the current day and about two remarkable young women who are very much the products of that place and time. Yet in doing so she has created a world in which readers will recognize themselves and has drawn a marvelously nuanced portrait of friendship.

    I am a bit disappointed in the quality and condition. Some pages look brown to yellow. However, I have the other 3 in this series and I love the paperback binding of these Europa editions paperbacks. They are quality and always a good value. I wish American publishers would print quality paperbacks.
