Despite all their claims to being different, they seemed to be made of the same clay.

a dramatic coming of age story about a girl navigating the messy lives of important adults in her life and a dive in how lying and infidelity affect every aspect of a young developing persons life. one of my fav elena ferrante stories so far.
