    Elena Ferrante's novel is one big epic coming-of-age story weaved through decades and spaces so large that your own world seems small. Starting from the 1950s in a poor but vibrant neighbourhood on the outskirts of Naples, the story transforms through cities, marriages, divorces and destines that merge and refract from one another. It's a meticulous portrait of two women, and a friendship that holds steadfast no matter what.
