Résumé
Now with added reading notes material! ***BEAUTIFUL WORLD, WHERE ARE YOU IS OUT NOW*** 'The best young novelist - indeed one of the best novelists - I've read in years.' Olivia Laing 'Superb . . . a tremendous read, full of insight and sweetness.' Anne Enright 'One the best novels I have read in years.' Sheila Heti Connell and Marianne grow up in the same small town in the west of Ireland, but the similarities end there. In school, Connell is popular and well-liked, while Marianne is a loner. But when the two strike up a conversation - awkward but electrifying - something life-changing begins. Normal People is a story of mutual fascination, friendship and love. It takes us from that first conversation to the years beyond, in the company of two people who try to stay apart but find they can't. THE BBC ADAPTATION OF NORMAL PEOPLE IS NOW AVAILABLE ON BBC IPLAYER AND BBC 1
Avis et Commentaires
15 avisFirst published in the UK in 2018 by Faber & Faber Ltd. This paperback edition published in 2024. Lu en septembre 2024. Autrice ayant étudié à Trinity College, Berlin. Incipit : January 2011 Marianne answers the door when Connell rings the bell. She’s still wearing her school uniform, but she’s taken off the sweater, so it’s just the blouse and skirt, and she has no shoes on, only tights.
didn’t like the characters, feel like they never evolve so the story seemed very long
Suggested by my once best friend now my boyfriend (still best friend) lowkey us but not iykwim. I love him.
Mon petit bijou
Lu après avoir vu la série Chouette histoire bien écrite et réaliste autour de la culture irlandaise
