Descriere Intermezzo - Sally Rooney

\nAN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A National Indie Bestseller \nShort-listed for the An Post Irish Book Awards Novel of the Year \nFinalist for the Barnes and Noble Book of the Year \n \nNamed a Best Book of the Year by The New York Times and an Essential Read by The New Yorker \nNamed a Best Book of the Year by The Washington Post, TIME, Financial Times, Vogue, The Guardian, Vox, The Times (UK), Apple Books, and more \nOne of Chicago Public Library's Favorite Books of the Year and People's Top 10 Books of the Year \n \nAn exquisitely moving story about grief, love, and family--but especially love--from the global phenomenon Sally Rooney. \n \nAside from the fact that they are brothers, Peter and Ivan Koubek seem to have little in common. \n \nPeter is a Dublin lawyer in his thirties--successful, competent, and apparently unassailable. But in the wake of their father's death, he's medicating himself to sleep and struggling to manage his relationships with two very different women--his enduring first love, Sylvia, and Naomi, a college student for whom life is one long joke. \n \nIvan is a twenty-two-year-old competitive chess player. He has always seen himself as socially awkward, a loner, the antithesis of his glib elder brother. Now, in the early weeks of his bereavement, Ivan meets Margaret, an older woman emerging from her own turbulent past, and their lives become rapidly and intensely intertwined. \n \nFor two grieving brothers and the people they love, this is a new interlude--a period of desire, despair, and possibility; a chance to find out how much one life might hold inside itself without breaking.\n
