By night she performs spoken-word poetry with her best friend and former girlfriend, Bobbi. When the pair befriend Melissa, an established journalist, and her actor husband Nick, Frances is drawn into an affair and a dazzling adult world of parties, holidays and complicated loyalties. It is a wry, incisive debut about art, power, jealousy and the shifting boundaries of friendship and desire. In \u003cem\u003eNormal People\u003c\/em\u003e, Connell and Marianne grow up in the same small town in the west of Ireland but move in very different social circles. A quiet, electric connection binds them, and over years, from school to university and beyond, they circle one another through love, misunderstanding and change. Tender and precise, it is a profound study of how two people can shape and save each other. Together these novels showcase Rooney's gift for dialogue and her clear-eyed compassion, making the set ideal for book clubs, students and anyone who loves character-driven contemporary fiction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo acclaimed Sally Rooney novels in one brand-new paperback set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes Normal People, the basis for the award-winning BBC\/Hulu series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect for book clubs, students and lovers of literary fiction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA thoughtful gift for birthdays, graduations or \"just because\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact paperbacks, ideal for travel, commuting and bedside reading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSally Rooney was born in 1987 in County Mayo and lives in Ireland.
