Naples' Little Women: The Fiction of Elena Ferrante

Lisa Mullenneaux

4.9/5 (33025 ratings)

Description:Elena Ferrante’s fiction covers the psychic landscape of women who come of age in post-WWII Italy, who struggle to escape poverty and juggle the demands of career and family. Her narrator’s voice is at once ferocious, intimate, and uncensored. Most remarkable for our media-obsessed age is that the author’s identity is a mystery as compelling as one of her plots. This critical study of her seven novels by Professor Mullenneaux integrates Ferrante’s own thoughts on her books from "La frantumaglia" (2003) with their critical reception since 1992. Chapters are dedicated to each novel and to the author’s signature themes—mothers and daughters, female friendship, and Naples as a “city in spite of itself”—to illuminate and extend Ferrante’s unique contribution to world literature. This volume is an essential resource for avid fans of the popular novelist and for those who want to deepen their knowledge of contemporary Italian literature.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
