Beskrivning

"The frantumaglia is an unstable landscape, an infinite aerial or aquatic mass of debris that appears to the I, brutally, as its true and unique inner self."—Frantumaglia: A Writer's Journey by Elena Ferrante"An absorbing, tantalising journey into the private world of Elena Ferrante."—The GuardianFor readers of My Brilliant Friend, this collection is an invitation to Elena Ferrante's workshop. Gathering more than two decades of letters, essays, reflections, and interviews, it reveals the ideas, experiences, and obsessions that shaped one of contemporary literature’s most celebrated voices.Ferrante reflects on the creative process behind the Neapolitan Quartet, her decision to remain out of the public eye, the adaptation of her novels for the screen, and the pleasures and frustrations of writing. Exploring motherhood, feminism, psychoanalysis, the cities that have shaped her, and the memories that continue to nourish her imagination, the result is a vivid and intimate self-portrait of a writer at work.
