Hello everyone!
We return with yet another Books & Booze session on the 9th of May.
Join us for a thoughtful and engaging discussion of Normal People, the bestselling novel that captured hearts (and broke a few) around the world. Sally Rooney’s quiet, powerful story follows Connell and Marianne—two complex, intelligent characters who navigate love, friendship, class differences, and miscommunication from their school days in a small Irish town to university life in Dublin.
We’ll talk about the novel’s themes—intimacy, identity, power, and emotional vulnerability—as well as Rooney’s unique writing style and the quiet intensity that’s made this book a modern classic.
As always, the Books & Booze session will take place in Walter’s Bookstore from 17:00 – 19:00. You can sign up here.
