Elena Ferrante ist ein Phänomen. Mit ihrem Epos über die Freundschaft zwischen den ungleichen Frauen Elena und Lila hat sie Literaturgeschichte geschrieben. Schon der Auftakt »Meine geniale Freundin« hat Suchtpotenzial. In den Fortsetzungen »Die Geschichte eines neuen Namens« und »Die Geschichte der getrennten Wege« entwirft sie ein Universum voller lebendiger Figuren, berührender Emotionen und unerwarteter Wendungen. Und wer nicht spätestens beim Finale »Die Geschichte des verlorenen Kindes« vom Ferrante-Fieber gepackt ist, hat kein Herz.

Sibylla, an American-at-Oxford turned loose on London, finds herself trapped as a single mother after a misguided one-night stand. High-minded principles of child-rearing work disastrously well. J. S. Mill (taught Greek at three) and Yo Yo Ma (Bach at two) claimed the methods would work with any child; when these succeed with the boy Ludo, he causes havoc at school and is home again in a month. (Is he a prodigy, a genius? Readers looking over Ludo’s shoulder find themselves easily reading Greek and more.)

Three trees on a hill each dream of greatness: to be made into a treasure chest, a proud ship, and to point to heaven.

Overwhelm and burnout have become commonplace descriptions in our society. So many of us move from stressor to stressor, relying on coffee and alcohol to get us up in the morning and down in the evening. We buy our “rhythm” at the store and our bodies pay the price. So many of us are skating on the surface of our true nature, our natural rhythm. We “hold it together” in rigidity and inflexibility until we fall apart, forever the servant of the ego and mind at the expense of who we really are, and what it really means to be human.

Naples, fin des années cinquante. Deux amies, Elena et Lila, vivent dans un quartier défavorisé de la ville, leurs familles sont pauvres et, bien qu'elles soient douées pour les études, ce n'est pas la voie qui leur est promise.

En revanche, Elena est soutenue par son institutrice, qui pousse ses parents à l'envoyer au collège puis, plus tard, au lycée, comme les enfants des Carracci et des Sarratore, des familles plus aisées qui peuvent se le permettre.
