Книга: A Girl Returned (Di Pietrantonio Donatella) ; Europa Editions, 2020

Without warning or explanation, a 13-year-old girl is sent away from the family she has always thought of as hers to live with her birth family: a large, chaotic household that is anything but welcoming. Thus begins a new life, one of struggle, tension, and conflict, especially between the girl and her mother. But in her relationship with her newly acquired sister Adriana, she will find the strength to start again and build a new and enduring sense of self.

Told with great immediacy and intensity A Girl Returned is a powerful novel rendered with sensitivity and verve by Ann Goldstein, translator of the works of Elena Ferrante. Set against the stark landscape of Abruzzo, it tells a compelling story about mothers and daughters, about families and responsibilities.
