Biography

Not many facts are known about Elena Ferrante's biography due to the author's anonymity. She has claimed in interviews that she was born in Naples, the daughter of a seamstress, and that she has three sisters. Her knowledge of classical literature has also led critics to claim that she must have studied literature.[4]
