Theres not a weak page, let alone a weak novel, among the eight to date. -- David Nice * The Arts Desk * "The Lying Life of Adults has the magnitude of great literature - from Balzac to Stendhal to the always beloved Proust. It is a necessary book." * Il Manifesto * A must for Ferrante fans. * The Times *
