Days of Abandonment by Elena Ferrante
Recommended by Phoebe Ward
About a housewife who slowly goes insane after her husband leaves her and her two kids for a 15 year old. Obviously an uplifting, joyful work! Obviously a fun, light beach read that goes down easy no problem! Just kidding, this book makes me feel sick and weak!

“And don’t forget her earlier works! This one will make you break out in hives but it’s worth it.”

“I liked this even more than the Neapolitan novels. It’s a dark and deeply feeling read. Devastating and precise, Ferrante is at her best when writing about grief.”
