Elena Ferrante returns to the tale at the center of the novel she considers to be a turning point in her development as a writer: The Lost Daughter. But this time the story takes the form of a children's fable told from the point of view of the lost (stolen!) doll, Celina. Celina is having a terrible night, one full of jealousy for the new kitten, Minú, feelings of abandonment and sadness, misadventures at the hands of the beach attendant, and dark dreams. But she will be happily found by Mati, her child, once the sun rises. Mati is a five-year-old girl who talks a lot, especially to me. I'm her doll. Her father has just arrived--he comes to the beach every weekend. He's brought her a black-and-white cat as a present. So until five minutes ago Mati was playing with me and now she's playing with the cat, whom she's named Minú. I'm lying on the sand, in the sun, and I don't know what to do. So begins this fable by "one of modern literature's greatest enigmas" and one of it's greatest practitioners, Elena Ferrante. Accompanied by the oneiric and stirring illustrations of Mara Cerri, The Beach at Night is a story for all of Ferrante's many ardent fans.
