书籍简介

《新名字的故事》是埃莱娜·费兰特的“那不勒斯四部曲”的第二部，描述了埃莱娜和莉拉的青年时代。在她们的人生急遽分化的那些年里，她们共同体验了爱、失去、困惑、挣扎、嫉妒和隐蔽的破坏。

莉拉在结婚当天就发现婚姻根本不是她想象的那样，她的初夜几乎是一场强奸。她带着一种强大的破坏欲介入了斯特凡诺的家族生意，似乎成为了她和埃莱娜小时候都想成为的那种女人。久未有身孕的莉拉，和埃莱娜去海边度假休养。而在伊斯基亚岛的那个夏天，改变了所有人的一生……

出于对莉拉所拥有的爱情的愤怒，“我”（埃莱娜）奋力摆脱这个破败、暴力、充满宿仇的街区。“我”成了街区的第yi个大学生，并和一个高级知识分子家庭的男孩订婚，甚至出版了一本小说。“我”以胜利者的形象回到那不勒斯，却发现告别了丑陋婚姻的莉拉，在一家肉食加工厂备受屈辱地打工。

当“我”发现自己的小说，其实完全窃取了莉拉交托给“我”的秘密笔记本里那些独特的力量和灵感，“我”被迫面临一个极度痛苦的问题：“我”和莉拉，到底谁离开了，又是谁留下了？

The Story of a New Name, the second book of the Neapolitan Quartet, picks up the story where My Brilliant Friend left off.

Lila has recently married and made her entree into the family business; Elena, meanwhile, continues her studies and her exploration of the world beyond the neighbourhood that she so often finds stifling. Love, jealousy, family, freedom, commitment, and above all friendship: these are signs under which both women live out this phase in their stories. Marriage appears to have imprisoned Lila, and the pressure to excel is at times too much for Elena. Yet the two young women share a complex and evolving bond that is central to their emotional lives and is a source of strength in the face of life's challenges.

In the Neapolitan Quartet, Elena Ferrante gives readers a poignant and universal story about friendship and belonging.

作者简介

埃莱娜·费兰特，目前意大利受欢迎也非常神秘的作家。埃莱娜·费兰特是一个笔名，其真实身份至今是谜。

2011年至2014年，埃莱娜·费兰特以每年一本的频率出版《我的天才女友》《新名字的故事》《离开的，留下的》和《失踪的孩子》这四部情节相关的小说，被称为“那不勒斯四部曲”。它们以史诗般的体例，描述了两个在那不勒斯穷困社区出生的女孩持续半个世纪的友谊。

“那不勒斯四部曲”也在世界范围内掀起了“费兰特热”，千万读者为书中对女性友谊极度真实、尖锐、毫不粉饰的描述所打动。虽然作者从未公开其性别，但媒体和评论家从其“自传性”色彩强烈的写作中判断其为女性。2015年，埃莱娜·费兰特被《金融时报》评为“年度女性”。2016年，《时代》周刊将埃莱娜·费兰特选入“具影响力的100位艺术家”。

Elena Ferrante is the author of The Days of Abandonment (Europa, 2005), Troubling Love (Europa, 2006), The Lost Daughter (Europa, 2008) and the four volumes of the Neapolitan Quartet (My Brilliant Friend, The Story of a New Name, Those Who Leave and Those Who Stay, and The Story of the Lost Child), published by Europa Editions between 2012 and 2015. She is also the author of a children's picture book illustrated by Mara Cerri, The Beach at Night, and a work of non-fiction, Frantumaglia: A Writer's Journey.
