Even though I have been to Italy a dozen times, I have never been to Naples, so I learned so much from Danielle's lecture. I gained so much insight into the setting of Elena Ferrante's amazing Neapolitan Quartet novels.

I enjoyed Danielle’s session of Elena Ferrante’s Naples as she covers so much material in a straightforward easy to understand manner. The back stories she tells give another layer of understanding to these fascinating novels and this fascinating city.
