My Brilliant Friend

The first 100 pages or so were a test for me but after that ... yeah.

I don't know where the rest of the story will lead but I'm quite enjoying this unique portrayal of female friendship. It's honest. Even the ugly parts. I'm on board with that.

It's also interesting to see a portrayal of post-war Italy from the view point of children. It reminded me of movies like “Rocco and His Brothers”.

I'll surely continue with this series.
