My Brilliant Friend by Elena Ferrante

Kicking off the year with the first volume of Elena Ferrante's four-volume story that spans almost sixty years, as its main characters become women, wives, mothers, and leaders, all the while maintaining a complex and at times conflicted friendship. This first novel in the series follows Lila and Elena from their fateful meeting as ten-year-olds through their school years and adolescence.

Through the lives of these two women, Ferrante tells the story of a neighborhood, a city, and a country as it is transformed in ways that, in turn, also transform the relationship between two women.
P.S also as a wonderful series on Now TV and Prime
