Frances is twenty-one years old, cool-headed and observant. A student in Dublin and an aspiring writer, at night she performs spoken word with her best friend Bobbi, who used to be her girlfriend. When they are interviewed and then befriended by Melissa, a well-known journalist who is married to Nick, an actor, they enter a world of beautiful houses, raucous dinner parties and holidays in Provence, beginning a complex ménage-à-quatre. But when Frances and Nick get unexpectedly closer, the sharply witty and emotion-averse Frances is forced to honestly confront her own vulnerabilities for the first time.

评分这是一本容易让人误解的书。本书的前半部分,我一边鄙视自己,一边迫不及待一页一页往下翻。Frances是一个自尊但又自卑的少女,有才华,但出身于中下层家庭。偶然被带入了一个上流社会的家庭,得以一窥他们的生活,但时不时又会感到自己不属于这个环境。她偷窥,尝试融入,以偷...

评分那些简单的 世俗的 不齿的都是生活
评分全世界的文学究竟出什么状况了…
评分确实是一等一的好读,有时作者对年轻一代生活状态和情感互动的精细描写让人都有些不适。读到最后,Melissa和Nick这对夫妇反倒越来越朦胧,这发生的一切,仅仅是两人调剂关系的一种相处模式(Bobbi的阴谋论),还是因为情感的滥觞呢?Nick的各种选择和行动是出于无法自控的真诚, 还是一个空心人在极端passive的日常状态下习惯使然?小说跟Rooney的短篇"Mr. Salary"在气脉上也有极强的相似度。
评分Sally Rooney is an early version of Lena Dunham, as in, “Tiny Furniture” period. 所幸新的Normal People进步了
评分I always knew I was morally ambiguous. I just need something to justify it. Now I find it. (Finished half a year ago)
