书籍英文名:Conversations with Friends
书籍作者:Rooney Sally
书籍简介:A sharply intelligent novel about two college students and the strange, unexpected connection they forge with a married couple.
Frances
is twenty-one years old, cool-headed, and darkly observant. A college
student and aspiring writer, she devotes herself to a life of the
mind–and to the beautiful and endlessly self-possessed Bobbi, her best
friend and comrade-in-arms. Lovers at school, the two young women now
perform spoken-word poetry together in Dublin, where a journalist named
Melissa spots their potential. Drawn into Melissa’s orbit, Frances is
reluctantly impressed by the older woman’s sophisticated home and tall,
handsome husband. Private property, Frances believes, is a cultural
evil–and Nick, a bored actor who never quite lived up to his potential,
looks like patriarchy made flesh. But however amusing their flirtation
seems at first, it gives way to a strange intimacy neither of them
expect. As Frances tries to keep her life in check, her relationships
increasingly resist her control: with Nick, with her difficult and
unhappy father, and finally even with Bobbi. Desperate to reconcile
herself to the desires and vulnerabilities of her body, Frances’s
intellectual certainties begin to yield to something new: a painful and
disorienting way of living from moment to moment.
Written with gem-like precision and probing intelligence, Conversations With Friends is wonderfully alive to the pleasures and dangers of youth.”
