The Days of Abandonment by Elena Ferrante
5.0

Masterpiece. I’ve never gotten so worked up, seething with rage doesn’t even cover it. The slow descent into madness then further to emptiness… Elena Ferrante is one of this most powerful writers I’ve ever come across.

Maybe one day I’ll have the words to describe what I felt reading this but for now all I’ll say is all men should die.
