Description

Después de Conversaciones entre amigos, Sally Rooney vuelve a deslumbrarnos con una historia sobre la fascinación mutua entre dos personas que no consiguen encontrarse.

El libro que inspiró la serie de HULU.

Ganador del Costa Novel Award / Ganador del Irish Novel of the Year / Finalista del Man Booker Prize / Finalista del Women's Prize for Fiction / En la lista de libros favoritos del 2019 del Presidente Obama y de Oprah Magazine.

Marianne y Connell son compañeros de instituto pero no se cruzan palabra. Él es uno de los populares y ella, una chica solitaria que ha aprendido a mantenerse alejada del resto de la gente. Todos saben que Marianne vive en una mansión y que la madre de Connell se encarga de su limpieza, pero nadie imagina que cada tarde los dos jóvenes coinciden. Uno de esos días, una conversación torpe dará comienzo a una relación que podría cambiar sus vidas.

Gente normal es una historia de fascinación mutua, de amistad y de amor entre dos personas que no consiguen encontrarse, una reflexión sobre la dificultad de cambiar quienes somos. La segunda novela de Sally Rooney acompaña durante años a dos protagonistas magnéticos y complejos, dos jóvenes que llegamos a entender hasta en su contradicción más sonada y en sus más graves malentendidos. Esta es una historia agridulce que muestra como nos conforman el sexo y el poder, el deseo de herir y ser herido, de amar y ser amado. Nuestras relaciones son una conversación a lo largo del tiempo. Nuestros silencios, lo que las define.

"Absolutely engrossing and surprisingly heartbreaking with more depth, subtlety, and insight than any one novel deserves."--Stephanie Danler

Connell and Marianne grow up in the same small town in rural Ireland. The similarities end there; they are from very different worlds. When they both earn places at Trinity College in Dublin, a connection that has grown between them lasts long into the following years.

This is an exquisite love story about how a person can change another person's life - a simple yet profound realisation that unfolds beautifully over the course of the novel. It tells us how difficult it is to talk about how we feel and it tells us - blazingly - about cycles of domination, legitimacy and privilege. Alternating menace with overwhelming tenderness, Sally Rooney's second novel breathes fiction with new life.
