My brilliant friend

Ferrante, Elena (author.). Goldstein, Ann, (translator.).

Summary: "The story of Elena and Lila begins in the 1950s in a poor but vibrant neighborhood on the outskirts of Naples. Growing up on these tough streets the two girls learn to rely on each other ahead of anyone or anything else, as their friendship, beautifully and meticulously rendered, becomes a not always perfect shelter for hardship."--
