ONE OF ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY’S TEN BEST NOVELS OF THE DECADE

TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: People, Slate, The New York Public Library, Harvard Crimson

Connell and Marianne grew up in the same small town, but the similarities end there. At 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.

A year later, they’re both studying at Trinity College in Dublin. Marianne has found her feet in a new social world while Connell hangs at the sidelines, shy and uncertain. Throughout their years at university, Marianne and Connell circle one another, straying toward other people and possibilities but always magnetically, irresistibly drawn back together. And as she veers into self-destruction and he begins to search for meaning elsewhere, each must confront how far they are willing to go to save the other.

Normal People is the 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 that they can’t.

¡Wow, qué libro!

"Normal People" me tocó profundamente, especialmente la frase: “people can really change one another”. Me hizo reflexionar sobre cómo cada persona con la que interactuamos, ya sea amigos, parejas o incluso extraños, nos moldea de alguna manera. La historia de Connell y Marianne es un claro ejemplo de esto.

Aunque la comunicación fue su talón de Aquiles, creo que siempre tuvieron claro que se amaban profundamente. Esa sensación de que no necesitan decirse nada porque ambos lo saben. Recomiendo este libro a quienes disfruten de historias de amor complejas y realistas.
