    <body><![CDATA[A puzzling, dark book and that is usually not a problem for me, but this one didn't stick that well.  I admired the writing (or the translation, rather) but didn't feel like I ever got engaged with either the characters or the subject matter.  The book opens with the suicide of the narrator's mother...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/67602233">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Full of motion, activity, and physicality, so much so that at times it was hard to take.  I saw the term &quot;impressionism&quot; in another review; yes.

    <![CDATA[<p> 				<br/>&quot;A deeply observed, excruciatingly blunt novel.&quot;-<em>The New Yorker</em></p> 		<em> 		</em> 		<p> 				<br/>&quot;The raging, tormented voice of the author is something rare.&quot;-<em>The New York Times</em></p> 		<em> 		</em> 		<p> 				<br/>Following her mother's untimely and mysterious death, Delia embarks on a voyage of discovery through the streets of her native Naples searching for the truth about her family. A series of mysterious telephone calls leads her to compelling and disturbing revelations about her mother's final days. </p> 		<p> 				<br/>This stylish fiction from the author of <em>The Days of Abandonment</em> is set in a beguiling but often hostile Naples, whose chaotic, suffocating streets become one of the book's central motifs. A story about mothers and daughters and the complicated knot of lies and emotions that binds them. </p> 		<p> 				<br/>Elena Ferrante's previous novel, <em>The Days of Abandonment,</em> received excellent critical attention in <em>The New York Times, The New Yorker, The Chicago Tribune, The Philadelphia Inquirer, The Seattle Times, Library Journal,</em> and many other publications. <em>Troubling Love</em> is expected to follow in its footsteps.</p>]]>

    <![CDATA[<p> 				<br/>&quot;A deeply observed, excruciatingly blunt novel.&quot;-<em>The New Yorker</em></p> 		<em> 		</em> 		<p> 				<br/>&quot;The raging, tormented voice of the author is something rare.&quot;-<em>The New York Times</em></p> 		<em> 		</em> 		<p> 				<br/>Following her mother's untimely and mysterious death, Delia embarks on a voyage of discovery through the streets of her native Naples searching for the truth about her family. A series of mysterious telephone calls leads her to compelling and disturbing revelations about her mother's final days. </p> 		<p> 				<br/>This stylish fiction from the author of <em>The Days of Abandonment</em> is set in a beguiling but often hostile Naples, whose chaotic, suffocating streets become one of the book's central motifs. A story about mothers and daughters and the complicated knot of lies and emotions that binds them. </p> 		<p> 				<br/>Elena Ferrante's previous novel, <em>The Days of Abandonment,</em> received excellent critical attention in <em>The New York Times, The New Yorker, The Chicago Tribune, The Philadelphia Inquirer, The Seattle Times, Library Journal,</em> and many other publications. <em>Troubling Love</em> is expected to follow in its footsteps.</p>]]>

    <![CDATA[<p> 				<br/>&quot;A deeply observed, excruciatingly blunt novel.&quot;-<em>The New Yorker</em></p> 		<em> 		</em> 		<p> 				<br/>&quot;The raging, tormented voice of the author is something rare.&quot;-<em>The New York Times</em></p> 		<em> 		</em> 		<p> 				<br/>Following her mother's untimely and mysterious death, Delia embarks on a voyage of discovery through the streets of her native Naples searching for the truth about her family. A series of mysterious telephone calls leads her to compelling and disturbing revelations about her mother's final days. </p> 		<p> 				<br/>This stylish fiction from the author of <em>The Days of Abandonment</em> is set in a beguiling but often hostile Naples, whose chaotic, suffocating streets become one of the book's central motifs. A story about mothers and daughters and the complicated knot of lies and emotions that binds them. </p> 		<p> 				<br/>Elena Ferrante's previous novel, <em>The Days of Abandonment,</em> received excellent critical attention in <em>The New York Times, The New Yorker, The Chicago Tribune, The Philadelphia Inquirer, The Seattle Times, Library Journal,</em> and many other publications. <em>Troubling Love</em> is expected to follow in its footsteps.</p>]]>
