Marianne and Connell are high school classmates but they don't cross word. He is one of the popular and she, a lonely girl who has learned to stay away from other people. Everyone knows that Marianne lives in a mansion and that Connell's mother takes care of her cleaning, but no one imagines that the two youngsters coincide each afternoon. One of those days, a clumsy conversation will begin a relationship that could change their lives. Normal people is a story of mutual fascination, friendship and love between two people who fail to meet, a reflection on the difficulty of changing who we are. Sally Rooney's second novel accompanies two magnetic and complex protagonists for years, two young people that we come to understand even in their most famous contradiction and in their most serious misunderstandings. This is a bittersweet story that shows how sex and power conform to us, the desire to hurt and be hurt, to love and be loved. Our relationships are a conversation over time. Our silences, what defines them. The critic has said ... Marianne and Connell approach, move away, love each other, doubt, each one thinks that the other does not care enough, they get depressed, suffer, enjoy and the waltz that tells us Sally Rooney ends up being a close, honest, pure and beautiful love story. Isabel Coixet Rooney manages to satisfy those who become obsessed with Conversations between friends After Conversations between friends, Sally Rooney again dazzles us with a story about the mutual fascination between two people who fail to meet.

Rooney's attention, his rigor and sensitivity towards people and relationships is an uncomfortable and important reprimand. I finished the book determined to look at the world differently. I don't know a better compliment to attribute to a novel. James Marriott, The Times The quality of his thinking eliminates the need for rhetorical flourishes.

The New Yorker Rooney is like one of those magicians who can punch a watermelon with a playing card. Thus he writes about love and lust between two damaged young people, alone and yearning. An original writer who is just beginning. The New York Times A beautiful, deep and intelligent novel. She is admirably honest from the emotional and sexual point of view, although she is also gentle, wise, sharp and endearing. A compassionate and succinct study on the innumerable ways in which men and women try to understand each other, and how they constantly fail
