About
The Neapolitan Novels is a series of literary fiction by Italian novelist Elena Ferrante . The series follows the lives of two perceptive and intelligent girls, Elena Greco (also known as Lenu) and Raffaella Cerullo (aka Lila), from childhood to adulthood as they try to create lives for themselves while living in a place that stifles such a thing – a poor neighbourhood on the outskirts of Naples, Italy.
