Been watching My brilliant Friend on HBO. A series about two girls from poverty growing up in post war Italy. The actresses are perfect as they change the cast as they age. The characters well drawn. i’m sicilan and i recognize the people and the culture.
The girls are not bright and we will see if and how they can escape their environments.
Two seasons passed and i an anxious for season 3. So I went to Amazon and ordered the third of four books about their lives. Here it is. you can order the first two books or stream HBO if you have access.
