Summary

The brilliant, bookish Elena and the fiery uncontainable Lila have made life's great discoveries, its vagaries and losses have been suffered. Both women once fought to escape the neighborhood in which they grew up--a prison of conformity, violence, and inviolable taboos. Now, in a Naples that is as seductive as it is perilous--and in a world undergoing epochal change--Lila and Elena clash, drift apart, reconcile, and clash again, in the process revealing new facets of their friendship." --, Provided by publishers
