Why people recommend it
Ties by Domenico Starnone is an intimate novel exploring the complex dynamics of family life, marital breakdown, and long-term commitments. The book and its translation received dedicated coverage on The Book Review, where host Gilbert Cruz and Greg Cowles interviewed the author alongside his translator, Jhumpa Lahiri. Domenico Starnone discussed the structural choices he made while writing the novel, noting that the author's presence is less visible and that the story connects intimately with his earlier body of work. Greg Cowles asked Starnone whether the narrative served as a direct literary response to Elena Ferrante's novel The Days of Abandonment. Jhumpa Lahiri reflected in her introduction to the English edition on the profound experience of translating the text, describing the process as her triumphant re-entry into the English language and noting that she could have translated the book in a dozen different ways depending on the day. Later in the podcast series, John Williams highlighted the interview and recommended the novel to listeners. Throughout these discussions, the book is celebrated for its precise psychological insight, emotional depth, and the brilliant collaborative translation work that brought it to an English-speaking audience.
