In her new novel, Intermezzo, Sally Rooney presents a tender, funny exploration of grief and complicated romantic entanglements, focusing on the dynamics between two rival brothers.
Unlike BWWAY, Rooney's latest work doesn't obsess over its value in the context of the world’s troubles; instead, it feels more serious and engaging.
Set against the backdrop of Dublin in 2022, Intermezzo delves into the lives of Peter and Ivan, illuminating their complex relationships and personal struggles.
Rooney's portrayal of Peter's relationship with Sylvia is particularly poignant, navigating the aftereffects of trauma in a manner that is both sincere and respectful.
