Those Who Leave and Those Who Stay

The action of the third part of the Neapolitan quartet, already called 'the best literary epic of our time', takes place in the late 1960s and the 1970s.

The story of the friendship between Lenu Greco and Lila Cerullo continues against a tumultuous historical background: student protests, street clashes, a growing trade union movement...

Lila, after separating from her husband, moved with her little son to a new housing development and works at a sausage factory.

Lenu left Naples, graduated from an elite college, published a book, is getting ready to marry, and become a member of an influential family.

Life pulls them further apart, they become just voices on the other end of the line. Will their relationship withstand the test of changes?
