Sally Rooney recommends
Wild Houses (2024)Colin Barrett"This strange and beautiful novel brings to life an entire world. Wild Houses is a book not just to read but to live inside." Reward System (2022)Jem Calder"Reward System is an exhilarating and beautiful book by an extraordinarily gifted writer. Reading these stories, I found myself thinking newly and differently about contemporary life." The Topeka School (2019)Ben Lerner"The Topeka School is a novel of exhilarating intellectual inquiry, penetrating social insight and deep psychological sensitivity. At every turn, its beautifully realised characters are shaped, even in the privacy of their inner lives, by the pressures of history and culture this is a book not only about how things really feel, but what things really mean. To the extent that we can speak of a future at present, I think the future of the novel is here." More recommendations Anthologies containing stories by Sally Rooney
