Hörbuchpreisträgerin Eva Mattes, "eine Meisterin des Vorlesens", interpretiert das Frühwerk der Bestsellerautorin Elena Ferrante ("Die Neapolitanische Saga"). 15 Jahre lang hat Olga die eigenen Wünsche zugunsten ihres Mannes und der Kinder hintangestellt. Dann zerbricht ihre Ehe. Wortgewaltig schildert Elena Ferrante, wie Olga ihr Leben mehr und mehr entgleitet, sie sich in Wahnvorstellungen hineinsteigert und dabei beinahe den Bezug zur Realität verliert. Aber auch, wie Olga in sich eine ungeahnte Kraft entdeckt.

Lola is back in Galveston after twenty years drinking and clubbing in Spain. She’s inherited an old house she’s afraid of and a family secret that might be either her undoing or her salvation. Lola has nothing to show for herself after two decades abroad except for a serious drinking problem and a penchant for picking up strangers. She’s missed her beloved aunt’s funeral and lacks the capacity to digest some of the mysteries of her upbringing – from the demons that plagued her beautiful yet volatile mother, to the ways in which her aunt loved her but kept her at arm’s length.

Elena Ferrante ist ein Phänomen. Mit ihrem Epos über die Freundschaft zwischen den ungleichen Frauen Elena und Lila hat sie Literaturgeschichte geschrieben. Schon der Auftakt »Meine geniale Freundin« hat Suchtpotenzial. In den Fortsetzungen »Die Geschichte eines neuen Namens« und »Die Geschichte der getrennten Wege« entwirft sie ein Universum voller lebendiger Figuren, berührender Emotionen und unerwarteter Wendungen. Und wer nicht spätestens beim Finale »Die Geschichte des verlorenen Kindes« vom Ferrante-Fieber gepackt ist, hat kein Herz.
