The Lying Life of Adults Book Description Elena Ferrante, who has aroused great interest all over the world with her Naples Novels, continues to be a matter of curiosity with her true identity, as well as being widely read and loved. Ferrante, who showcases the modern classics of the 21st century one by one with her works, invites us to explore the human dilemma and the flexible textures of family ties in The Lying Life of Adults. Giovanna, who spent a privileged childhood in the hills of Naples, one day hears her father comparing her to her infamous sister, Aunt Vittoria, whom she has not seen for years. Feeling uncomfortable with this unexpected connection, the young girl sets out to investigate her family's past. He goes to look for his aunt, who lives in one of the poor neighborhoods of the city, and his trust and love for his parents are shaken. Giovanna is looking for the truth, not the image she is consoled for, in two opposite parts of the city that fear and loathe each other: one is upper Naples, which wears the mask of politeness, the other is lower Naples, the place of excess and vulgarity. As he goes back and forth between these two, he becomes confused with the truth that neither of them can answer or avoid. The Lying Life of Adults is a new story, a new threshold of pleasure that Ferrante fans know well. (From the Promotional Bulletin)
