“Rooney’s characters may get caught in a 'tangled web,' but they learn how to live with decency and courage and compassion. Normal may be a lot less important than one thinks.”
“Sally Rooney doesn’t repeat herself. Rather, she is a pentimento artist, building a familiar world in a way that makes it feel boldly new.”
A subtle book, a gently disturbing book longlisted for this year’s Man Booker Prize.
