Ferrante is a master at capturing human emotion. Not only that, her sentences are so delightful and can turn from horrifying to elating in a matter of seconds. I'm happy to say this one did not disappoint.

"When I don’t know what to read, a Ferrante re-read usually does the trick."

Ah, I feel so alone here... But: happy for you that you enjoyed it!

Would you recommend it to someone feeling a bit low? Would it bring the reader down?
It depends on your personality, sometimes something dark can make you feel less alone and other times it will make you feel worse. I loved this book but my friend couldn’t read it as she found it triggering.
