    Hi everyone,
    I’m choosing one book as a gift for someone who loved Elena Ferrante (especially the Neapolitan novels). I’m looking for a similar emotional and literary core.

    These are the final contenders after researching online

    • Quaderno proibito (Forbidden Notebook) – Alba de Céspedes
    • Lessico famigliare (Family Lexicon) – Natalia Ginzburg
    • Az ajtó (The Door) – Magda Szabó
    • Nada (Nada) – Carmen Laforet
    • The Bell Jar – Sylvia Plath

    If you had to choose one of these for a Ferrante reader, which would you pick? Any other suggestions?
