Conversations with friends book5/21/2023 It was the first time I felt a series had broken me down and reconfigured me differently. When I watched Normal People back in lockdown, it felt as much of a coming-of-age story as that of Marianne’s ( Daisy Edgar-Jones) and Connell’s ( Paul Mescal). I spoke to some friends and fellow students – Alice, Daisy, and Martha – about the impact the TV series had on their lives and whether this adaptation felt just as emotionally poignant as its eminently successful predecessor, Normal People. Sally Rooney’s original novel of the same title is near and dear to many. Yet, just like its meek characters, Conversations with Friends faded out of public consciousness without leaving any permanent cultural mark. It was supposed to be the hit of the summer. Warning: This article contains spoilers for Sally Rooney’s Conversations with Friends.
