Shop My Brilliant Friend (Neapolitan Novels Series #1) by Elena Ferrante in Los Angeles, CA

Now an Hbo series- the first volume in the New York Times–bestselling enduring masterpiece about a lifelong friendship between two women from Naples (The Atlantic). Beginning in the 1950s in a poor but vibrant neighborhood on the outskirts of Naples, Elena Ferrante's four-volume story spans almost sixty years, as its main characters, the fiery and unforgettable Lila and the bookish narrator, Elena, become women, wives, mothers, and leaders, all the while maintaining a complex and at times conflicted friendship. This first novel in the series follows Lila and Elena from their fateful meeting as ten-year-olds through their school years and adolescence. Through the lives of these two women, Ferrante tells the story of a neighborhood, a city, and a country as it is transformed in ways that, in turn, also transform the relationship between two women. An intoxicatingly furious portrait of enmeshed friends. -Entertainment Weekly Spectacular. -Maureen Corrigan, Npr's Fresh Air Captivating. -The New Yorker.
