Normal People – Sally Rooney
At school, Connell and Marianne inhabit very different social worlds, yet a private connection draws them together. As they move from adolescence into adulthood, their relationship evolves through friendship, love, misunderstandings and personal growth.
Sharp, intimate and emotionally compelling, Normal People explores class, identity, vulnerability and the complexities of human connection.
Highly rated and one of the most discussed literary novels of recent years, it's praised for beautifully observed relationships, honest, emotionally powerful storytelling and elegant, minimalist writing. It's a BookTok and book-club favourite that captures the intensity and heartbreak of first love.
