    About this ebook

    My Brilliant Friend: by Elena Ferrante | Conversation Starters

    A Brief Look Inside:
    Elena Greco and Lila Cerullo live in the same neighborhood and go to the same school, but their paths in life quickly diverge after middle school when Lila drops out. However, they manage to hang on to their friendship. My Brilliant Friend, a book about friendship and the bonds of childhood that can persist despite the many problems that life throws your way, explores female bonding in a patriarchal society. It touches upon the themes of repression of women, male violence, normalization of violence, poverty and its consequences, and the aftermath of World War II on the people as a whole.

    bring us beneath the surface of the page
    and invite us into the world that lives on.
