Publisher's Summary
Here is the dazzling saga of two women: the brilliant, bookish Elena
and the fiery, uncontainable Lila. Both are now adults; many of life's
great discoveries have been made, its vagaries and losses have been
suffered. Through it all, the women's friendship has remained the gravitational
center of their lives. Both women once fought to escape the neighborhood
in which they grew up - a prison of conformity, violence, and inviolable
taboos. Elena married, moved to Florence, started a family, and published
several well-received novels. In this final book, she has returned to
Naples.
Lila, on the other hand, never succeeded in freeing herself from the
city of her birth. She has become a successful entrepreneur, but her
success draws her into closer proximity to the nepotism, chauvinism,
and criminal violence that infect her neighborhood. Nearness to the
world she has always rejected only brings her role as its unacknowledged
leader into relief. For Lila is unstoppable, unmanageable, and unforgettable.
Against the backdrop of a Naples that is as seductive as it is perilous,
the story of a lifelong friendship is told with unmatched honesty and
brilliance. The four volumes in this series constitute a long, remarkable
story that listeners will return to again and again, and every return
will bring with it new revelations.
