My Brilliant Friend: The Four Volumes by Elena Ferrante

 
A deluxe cloth hardcover with sprayed edges and colored end papers illustrating the Bay of Naples. Published 9th October 2025.
 
When Elena Ferrante set out to write the story of Elena and Lila, she conceived it as one single work of fiction, one expansive novel that would capture the reality and ambivalence of female friendship, motherhood, marriage, class and adolescence. 2025 marks 10 years since publication of the quartet was completed. To celebrate this anniversary, a special edition has been published that features all four novels in one volume. Described by the New Yorker’s James Wood as “large, captivating, amiably peopled...a beautiful and delicate tale of confluence and reversal,” the Neapolitan Quartet tells a poignant, universal story about friendship and belonging.
