i would have love giving this book more stars especially cause i was so excited to read Toni Morrison but unfortunely i had such a hard time with this, the writing was beautiful (as expected) but the story loose me quite a lot i wished it was more focus on the little girl but sadly we spend so much times with characters that i don't care about
I read it almost entirely in one day which I didn't expected cause I'm currently in a reading slump which show how much I was invested
I saw people complaining about the character of his wife, saying that the writing for this character was misogynistic but I disagree, she was one of my favorite thing in this book, cause yes she act like a bitch to him but it make sense : she is in a loveless marriage that she didn't had the chance to refuse.
I could have read a book with her as a mc and eat it up, she's a woman living in a prison named patriarchy and she's angry about it at a time. Nothing about her was caricatural

un peu lent par moment, mais ce livre reste excellent, Elena Ferrante arrive à créer une atmosphère si forte qu'on se croirait directement dans le bouquin. Probablement son livre le plus politisé, où on peut peut voir Elena et Lila aiguisent leurs opinions politiques et se placent toutes deux au premier rang des luttes, on peut aussi voir la question des femmes au foyer et de leurs effacement, Elena qui prend ce rôle malgré elle n'étant pas une salariée. Et comme à chaque fois après avoir finit un livre de cette série je dois me contenir pour ne pas lire le suivant tout de suite
(not gonna rate memoirs)
waouh, c'était poignant, juste envie de pleurer et de lever le poing pour toutes les femmes qui ont été victime de féminicides
