Sally Rooney

A quietly devastating portrait of two young people who keep finding and losing each other from high school through university, told in prose so precise it feels like eavesdropping on the inside of a relationship. Spare, intimate, unforgettable.

Sally Rooney's razor-sharp debut about a twenty-one-year-old college student who tumbles into an affair with an older married man, and discovers how little she understands her own desires. Cool, smart, and quietly piercing.
