Elena Ferrante's shattering English-language debut remains an unforgettable reading experience for her die-hard readers and a thorny pleasure still to be discovered for the millions of fans who only know her from My Brilliant Friend. "A masterpiece," according to the Philadelphia Inquirer; "Stunning," says The New Yorker; "Nothing prepares you for the ferocity of it," wrote Amy Rowland in The New York Times. Even two decades after its first publication, The Days of Abandonment remains a groundbreaking, propulsive, and cathartic account of a woman's wrath. Olga's husband of fifteen years has announced that he is leaving her. In a "raging, torrential voice" (New York Times) that is nonetheless "intelligent and darkly comic" (Publishers Weekly), Olga recounts her journey from denial to devastating emptiness. When she finds herself trapped within the four walls of her apartment, she is forced to confront her ghosts, the potential loss of her own self, and the possibility that life may never return to normal.
