The global #1 bestseller from Sally Rooney, author of Normal People — an exquisitely moving novel about grief, love and the complicated bonds between brothers.
Aside from being brothers, Peter and Ivan Koubek seem to have little in common. Peter is a successful Dublin lawyer in his thirties — competent, composed and apparently unassailable — but in the wake of their father's death he's medicating himself to sleep and juggling his feelings for two very different women: his enduring first love, Sylvia, and Naomi, a college student for whom life is one long joke.
Ivan is a twenty-two-year-old competitive chess player who has always seen himself as awkward, a loner, the opposite of his glib older brother. Now, in the raw early weeks of grief, Ivan meets Margaret, an older woman emerging from her own turbulent past — and their lives become rapidly, intensely intertwined.
For two grieving brothers and the people they love, this is a tender interlude of desire, despair and possibility.
