Beautiful World, Where Are You

Sally Rooney’s “Beautiful World, Where Are You” is a poignant exploration of modern relationships and existential angst. Through the intertwined lives of four young adults, Rooney deftly navigates the complexities of love, friendship, and self-discovery in a world teetering on the brink. Her razor-sharp prose and keen observations of human nature left me pondering long after I’d turned the final page. It’s a book that feels both timely and timeless, capturing the essence of what it means to be alive in our beautiful, messy world.
