La Prodigieuse Elena Ferrante
6.1
Elena Ferrante a choisi l'anonymat depuis son premier roman, «L'Amour harcelant», paru en 1992, et entend s'y tenir. Mais l'auteur de la tétralogie «L'Amie prodigieuse», best-seller mondial dont le quatrième tome est paru en français chez Gallimard en 2018, n'en assume pas moins une parole publique. En 2016, dans le livre «La frantumaglia», celle à qui la presse a prêté diverses identités prend la parole pour livrer sa propre analyse de son oeuvre, de son inspiration et de son histoire. Dit en voix off avec des extraits de ses romans, ce documentaire permet à Elena Ferrante de dialoguer avec ses éditeurs, le couple formé par Sandra Ozzola et Sandro Ferri, et d'éminents fans comme son compatriote Roberto Saviano.
