contemporary writer. The Works of Elena Ferrante: Reconfiguring the
Margins brings together the most exciting and innovative research
on Ferrante's treatment of the intricacies of women's lives,
relationships, struggles, and dilemmas to explore feminist theory
in literature; questions of gender in twentieth-century Italy; and
the psychological and material elements of marriage, motherhood,
and divorce. Including an interview from Ann Goldstein, this volume
goes beyond "Ferrante fever" to reveal the complexity and richness
of a remarkable oeuvre.
