Giovanna's pretty face has changed: it's turning into the face of an ugly, spiteful adolescent. But is she seeing things as they really are? Into which mirror must she look to find herself and save herself?
She is searching for a new face in two kindred cities that fear and detest one another: the Naples of the heights, which assumes a mask of refinement, and the Naples of the depths, which professes to be a place of excess and vulgarity. She moves between these two cities, disoriented by the fact that, whether high or low, the city seems to offer no answer and no escape.
##和当初在航班上看天才女友剧集的感受相似,人与人之间有很深邃复杂的情感羁绊,一地鸡毛又五味杂陈。Giovanna 见到 Vittoria 之前和初次与她相见都扣人心弦,后来故事和人物关系的层层展开剥离让人有时疲惫至透不过气,戏剧又真实。很能明白 Roberta 之于她的意义。成长之痛还会延续。
评分##在通勤時間再讀一遍。對我來說是比那不勒斯四部曲更容易共情的。

评分##放逐,童年阴影,焦虑与不安,总要交织的爱与恨,容貌愈发接近父母的恐惧…还是那个Elena Ferrante,这本的格局小得多,也没什么时间跨度,虽然和四部曲比较不太合适,但确实相差很远。能再读到Elena Ferrante就是好的。
评分##Something about the way Ferrante portrays a girl is irresistible.

评分##很精彩!不逊于“那不勒斯四部曲”。同样是发生在那不勒斯的故事,同样的风格。每次看Elena Ferrante的故事,总会很奇妙地找到自己原生家庭的影子。或许是意大利和中国从某种角度有点像,都很重视家庭;六七十年代家里成员较多;经济条件不好等等,形成了一种不同文化背景下的情感共鸣。

评分##感动中国,终于看完 虽然我也不懂一本意大利文的书我看它的英译本的意义在哪里(x)
