Beautiful World, Where Are You is a new novel by Sally Rooney, the bestselling author of Normal People and Conversations with Friends.
Alice, a novelist, meets Felix, who works in a warehouse, and asks him if he’d like to travel to Rome with her. In Dublin, her best friend, Eileen, is getting over a break-up, and slips back into flirting with Simon, a man she has known since childhood.
Alice, Felix, Eileen, and Simon are still young―but life is catching up with them. They desire each other, they delude each other, they get together, they break apart. They have sex, they worry about sex, they worry about their friendships and the world they live in. Are they standing in the last lighted room before the darkness, bearing witness to something? Will they find a way to believe in a beautiful world?
Sally Rooney is an Irish novelist. She is the author of Conversations with Friends and Normal People. She also contributed to the writing and production of the Hulu/BBC television adaptation of Normal People.

I wasn’t expecting much out of it but am still disappointed. Superficial, self absorbed, and lengthy monologue about pre-middle life crisis (yes the book is still a monologue of Rooney’s despite the polyphonic narratives and her attempts at writing the st...

眼睛不舒服，打算用audible听书，试试看//形式还是很值得借鉴的，内容我觉得怪怪的

依旧是熟悉细腻的笔触。女孩子的抑郁焦虑有时看的我很想把她们从地上拎起来说坚强一点！但还好有这最后的结局。💜

前段时间读了一些经典名著，阅读速度很慢，相比之下，当代畅销小说读起来容易多了！虽然故事比较老套，但是作者的语言很有画面感，就像在看剧，而且其中的一些对于当代生活的展现与探讨让人很有共鸣，原来世界上其他地方的年轻人也在经历着跟我们一样的迷茫与困境。另外，在Simon身上看到了一部分自己。

书中会有一些对社会问题的探讨，但是并不够深刻。人物性格不完美反而让她/他们更加迷人。鲁尼的书最大的好处是比较容易读完，但是完全没有震撼的效果。
