This is a beautifully presented collection
of four unforgettable novels, each exploring a universal story of love,
friendship, family, and belonging.
In My
Brilliant Friend Deluxe Edition, Elena
Ferrante’s quartet of novels are culled into one distinctive volume. If
you’re not already familiar with the four books she previously released as
standalone Neapolitan-themed novels (My
Brilliant Friend; The
Story of a New Name; Those
Who Leave and Those Who Stay; The
Story of the Lost Child), this is a chance to read all the
books between two covers. This beautifully presented, deluxe cloth hardcover
edition features sprayed edges and
colored endpapers illustrating the Bay of Naples.
When Elena Ferrante set out to write the story
of Elena and Lila, she conceived it as one single work of fiction, one
expansive novel that would capture the reality and ambivalence of female
friendship, motherhood, marriage, class, and adolescence. This year, 2025,
marks 10 years since the quartet of novels was completed and this one book,
filled with all four of the novels, has been issued to celebrate that
anniversary and honor the author’s original conception.
If you
are a reader or writer--or maybe you love to collect books--this is a MUST to
add to your cherished collection. Or
better yet, give this one as a gift!
NOTE: My Brilliant Friend was named the #1 Best Book of the Century by
the New York Times.
