Reviews

"Ferrante's novels are tactile and sensual, visceral and dizzying."
*The Guardian*

"It’s Leda’s voice that’s hypnotic, and it’s the writing that makes it that way. Ferrante can do a woman’s interior dialogue like no one else, with a ferocity that is shockingly honest, unnervingly blunt"
*Booklist*

"Ferrante's gift for psychological horror renders it immediate and visceral"
*The New Yorker*

"Ferrante is a hypnotist."
*The Spectator*

"[Ferrante] describes the female experience so intimately and so vividly that the reader feels like she could (and should) know the writer personally."
*New York Magazine*

“A raw, gritty and gripping meditation of the difficulties of motherhood.”
*The Observer*

“An absorbingly shaped psychological drama, built around a single traumatising event from which the action metastasises.”
*The Guardian*

“Subtly daring.”
*The Financial Times*

“Entirely gripping….. a literary film with a literary script.”
*The Spectator*

“Sadness is lanced through the heart of Gyllenhaal’s film, which she both adapted and directed, but it’s rich and luxurious in its texture.”
*The Independent*

“Adapted from Elena Ferrante’s novel of the same name, The Lost Daughter is a heady exercise in restraint."
*NME*
