Leda, a middle-aged divorcee, is alone for the first time in years when her daughters leave home to live with their father. Her initial, unexpected sense of liberty turns to ferocious introspection following a seemingly trivial occurrence. Throughout the novel, Ferrante's language is as finely tuned and intense as ever, and she treats her theme with a fierce, candid tenacity.

An IndiBound best seller, The Days of Abandonment shocked and captivated its Italian public when first published. It is the gripping story of a woman's descent into devastating emptiness after being abandoned by her husband, with two young children to care for. When she finds herself literally trapped within the four walls of their high-rise apartment, she is forced to confront her ghosts, the potential loss of her own identity, and the possibility that life may never return to normal.

Giovanna’s pretty face is changing, turning ugly, at least so her father thinks. Giovanna, he says, is looking more like her Aunt Vittoria every day. But can it be true? Is she really changing? Will she turn out like her despised Aunt Vittoria, a woman she hardly knows but whom her mother and father have spent their whole lives avoiding and deriding? There must be a mirror somewhere in which she can see herself as she truly is.

The Years is a personal narrative of the period of 1941 to 2006 told through the lens of memory, impressions past and present - even projections into the future - photos, books, songs, radio, television, and decades of advertising and headlines, contrasted with intimate conflicts and written notes from six decades of diaries. Local dialect, words of the time, slogans, brands, and names for ever-proliferating objects are given a voice here. The voice we recognize as the author's continually dissolves and re-emerges.

Description
The follow-up to My Brilliant Friend, The Story of a New Name continues the epic New York Times bestselling literary quartet that has inspired an HBO series, and returns us to the world of Lila and Elena, who grew up together in post-WWII Naples, Italy.
In The Story of a New Name, Lila has recently married and made her entrée into the family business; Elena, meanwhile, continues her studies and her exploration of the world beyond the neighborhood that she so often finds stifling. Marriage appears to have imprisoned Lila, and the pressure to excel is at times too much for Elena. Yet the two young women share a complex and evolving bond that is central to their emotional lives and a source of strength in the face of life’s challenges.
In these Neapolitan Novels, Elena Ferrante, “one of the great novelists of our time” (New York Times), gives us a poignant and universal story about friendship and belonging, a meditation on love and jealousy, freedom and commitment—at once a masterfully plotted page-turner and an intense, generous-hearted family saga.

Brilliant Second Book
I listened to the first book years ago, but for some reason, it felt emotionally distant and I appreciated the writing but felt removed. But I have since watched both television series and reread the first novel. It is truly a brilliant piece of art. Listening to the second book makes me realize what is so important about it, the complexities of the relationships, the subtleties of experience, and moreover, how challenging but perfectly it was adapted for screen.

I love this series
And this second novel in the series didn’t disappoint. The writer creates a wonderful atmosphere of post-war Naples and the struggle in a small neighbourhood to survive and escape poverty, family tension and the town bullies. The friendship between two women continues and gets more interesting because of the different paths they take. Love it. Starting on book 3 now.

engaging from beginning to end.
A story so similar to the lives of my parents living in central Italy during those same years The struggles, the missed opportunities of becoming educated, despite the intelligence and street smarts of the young people. A bygone era so well portrayed with the true sensibilities of the times.

Loved this book!
Book takes you into an authentic Italian town in the 50’s and 60’s. In book 2 you start to really get to know the characters and their struggles and triumphs. I got fully immersed in this book! Watch Season 1 and 2 while reading books! Now starting Book 3 and can’t wait for Season 3!

Story is engaging but narrator ruins it - monotone
I had read vs listened to the first book and watched the HBO special. i was hoping that Elena would become more of her own character vs act and react/ measure herself in constant relation to Lila. But she did not, and her interminable analysis and review of Lila’s actions, her own reaction and then regret & shame simply prevented this book from moving forward at an interesting pace. Then it rushed the ending with vignettes of the Naples characters’ stories too quickly.
To add, I listened to this book on audible and the narrator was the wrong choice. Very monotone, and so slow. i had to increase the speed by 20% to get through this book.Unfortunately it is the same narrator for the 4 book series.
