Mr B's review
Incredibly intelligent and insightful in its analysis of modern relationships. No matter how many times I come back to this book, I’m always astounded by Rooney’s precise and nuanced prose and the way she writes dialogue so naturally, with the conversations that flow through the novel effortlessly building up the complex layers of connection between its characters. I read it in one sitting.

Frances is twenty-one years old, cool-headed and observant. At night she performs spoken word with her best friend Bobbi, who used to be her girlfriend. When they are befriended by Melissa, a well-known journalist who is married to Nick, an actor, they enter a world of beautiful houses, raucous dinner parties and holidays in Provence, beginning a complex menage-a-quatre.
