Krátky popis
Winner of the Campiello Prize. A pitch-perfect rendering in English
by Ann Goldstein, Elena Ferrante's translator. ",I was the
Arminuta, the girl returned. I spoke another language, I no longer
knew who I belonged to. The word 'mama' stuck in my throat like a
toad. And, nowadays, I really have no idea what kind of place
mother is. It is not mine in the way one might have good health, a
safe place, certainty.", Told with an immediacy and a rare
expressive intensity that has earned it countless adoring readers
and one of Italy's most prestigious literary prizes, A Girl
Returned marks the English-language debut of an extraordinary
literary talent. Set against the stark, beautiful landscape of
Abruzzo in central Italy, this is a compelling story about mothers
and daughters, about responsibility, siblings, and caregiving.
Without warning or explanation, an unnamed 13-year-old girl is sent
away from the family she has always thought of as hers to live with
her birth family: a large, chaotic assortment of individuals whom
she has never met and who seem anything but welcoming. Thus begins
a new life, one of struggle, tension, and conflict, especially
between the young girl and her mother. But in her relationship with
Adriana and Vincenzo, two of her newly acquired siblings, she will
find the strength to start again and to build a new and enduring
sense of self.
