Who The Hell Is Elena Ferrante?
Here’s a witty look at “Ferrante Fever” — the intense popularity of the pseudonymous fiction of Elena Ferrante, and the mystery of her identity. Danya Tortorici writes: ‘Whether to goad Ferrante out of privacy or because they think it’s true, the Italian newspaper L’Unità has accused the novelist Domenico Starnone of penning her books. If Starnone is behind Ferrante’s work, I would like to meet him. No man I know would write so well and not take credit for it.’
