Readers of Elena Ferrante’s The Lost Daughter may recall the little doll — lost or stolen — around which that novel revolves. Here, Ferrante retells the tale from the doll’s perspective.

Celina is having a terrible night, one full of jealousy for the new kitten, Minù; 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.
