Elena Ferrante has long been considered one of the best writers of her generation in Italy, but now her novels and acclaim have spread across the United States and around the world. Her Neapolitan Novels are beautifully and expertly translated by Ann Goldstein,
and Ferrante's ardent fans range from everyone from James Wood to Gwyneth Paltrow. And to Pulitzer Prize winner Jhumpa Lahiri.
We were honored to present this very special evening with Ann Goldstein and Jhumpa Lahiri in conversation about the power, beauty and ferocity of Ferrante's writing, with a special focus on the final novel of the series, "The Story of the Lost Child" (Europa Editions).
