Troubling Love

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

The writer who calls herself Elena Ferrante was born in Naples; though one of Italy’s most acclaimed contemporary authors, she has shunned public attention and kept her identity a mystery. Troubling Love is the second novel by Elena Ferrante to be published by Europa Editions. The Days of Abandonment, described by The New Yorker as “a deeply observed, excruciatingly blunt novel,” came out in 2005.
