La vida mentirosa de los adultos

Ferrante’s nuanced portrayal of growing up feels deeply personal yet universal. I wonder what personal experiences or observations influenced this story.

The setting feels almost like a mirror to her inner transformation. Was this intentional, and how does the environment shape her journey?

The balance between internal monologue and action creates such a layered narrative. I’d love to know how she structured these moments to build tension or empathy.
