Days of Abandonment by Elena Ferrante

I had not read anything by Elena Ferrante and now that her newest book is getting so much attention, I decided to start at the beginning.  And glad I did. This was an upsetting but excellent read and I am ready to dive into the next volumes of her work. 
This story tells of a woman, Olga, who is "abandoned" by her husband Mario. She has two children, and no real life outside of her marriage and children. This novel tells of her breakdown, after learning that her husband is leaving her, and then finding out about his infidelity.
It's a "common" story, but told very well. I really like her writing, although I realize that I am reading a translation!
