From one of Italy's most acclaimed authors, The Neapolitan Novels is an exploration of the friendship between Lila and Lena, two bright young girls who grew up in the tough, rough streets of post-war Naples. This is no normal friendship; it's a friendship that loves, hurts, supports and destroys - and yet it is one that lasts a lifetime.

Starting time: 19:15 sharp

Format:
1. Members introduction (10 minutes)
2. Brief introduction of next book (5 minutes)
