This compelling novel tells the story of one woman`s headlong descent into what she calls an `absence of sense` after being abandoned by her husband. Olga`s "days of abandonment become a desperate, dangerous freefall into the darkest places of the soul as she roams the empty streets of a city that she has never learned to love. When she finds herself trapped inside the four walls of her apartment in the middle of a summer heat wave, Olga is forced to confront her ghosts, the potential loss of her own identity, and the possibility that life may never return to normal again.

A powerful new novel set in a divided Naples by Elena Ferrante, the beloved best-selling author of My Brilliant Friend. Giovanna's pretty face has changed: it's turning into the face of an ugly, spiteful adolescent. But is she seeing things as they really are? Into which mirror must she look to find herself and save herself? She is searching for a new face in two kindred cities that fear and detest one another: the Naples of the heights, which assumes a mask of refinement, and the Naples of the depths, which professes to be a place of excess and vulgarity. She moves between these two cities, disoriented by the fact that, whether high or low, the city seems to offer no answer and no escape.

Après L'amie prodigieuse et Le nouveau nom, Celle qui fuit et celle qui reste est la suite de la formidable saga dans laquelle Elena Ferrante raconte cinquante ans d'histoire italienne et d'amitié entre ses deux héroïnes, Elena et Lila. Pour Elena, comme pour l'Italie, une période de grands bouleversements s'ouvre. Nous sommes à la fin des années soixante, les événements de 1968 s'annoncent, les mouvements féministes et protestataires s'organisent, et Elena, diplômée de l'Ecole normale de Pise et entourée d'universitaires, est au premier rang. Même si les choix de Lila sont radicalement différents, les deux jeunes femmes sont toujours aussi proches, une relation faite d'amour et de haine, telles deux soeurs qui se ressembleraient trop. Et, une nouvelle fois, les circonstances vont les rapprocher, puis les éloigner, au cours de cette tumultueuse traversée des années soixante-dix. Celle qui fuit et celle qui reste n'a rien à envier à ses deux prédécesseurs. A la dimension historique et intime s'ajoute même un volet politique, puisque les dix années que couvre le roman sont cruciales pour l'Italie, un pays en transformation, en marche vers la modernité.
