Conversations with Friends - by Sally Rooney (Hardcover)

Sally Rooney's Conversations with Friends is a thought-provoking, insightful, and engaging novel that explores the complexities of female friendship and the messy edges of adulthood.

With a sharp and perceptive eye, Rooney delves into the inner lives of two young women navigating their way through the challenges of growing up in a world filled with social media, technology, and the constant pressure to conform. Frances is a coolheaded and darkly observant young woman studying in Dublin, whose friendship with the beautiful and endlessly self-possessed Bobbi is at the heart of the novel.

As they become gradually drawn into the world of a well-known photographer, Frances finds herself caught up in a strange and painful intimacy that challenges her understanding of love, desire, and the true nature of friendship. With gemlike precision and marked by a sly sense of humor, Rooney's writing is both deliciously observant and deeply affecting, capturing the messy, unpredictable nature of human relationships with rare insight and empathy.

Conversations with Friends is a truly remarkable debut that will resonate with readers long after they finish the final page.
