- Sally Rooney (born 20 February 1991) is an Irish author and screenwriter. Her debut novel, Conversations with Friends, was published in 2017. It was followed by Normal People in 2018. Normal People was adapted into a 2020 TV series.
Rooney was born in Castlebar, County Mayo, in 1991, and grew up there. Her father worked for Telecom Éireann, and her mother ran an arts centre. Rooney has an older brother and a younger sister. Rooney studied English at Trinity College Dublin (TCD), where she was elected a scholar in 2011. She started (but did not complete) a master's degree in politics there, and completed a degree in American literature instead, and graduated from an MA in 2013.[5] Rooney has described herself as a Marxist.
A university debater, as a student at Trinity College Dublin, Rooney rose through the ranks of the European circuit to become the top debater at the European University Debating Championships in 2013, later writing of the experience. Before becoming a writer, she worked for a restaurant in an administrative role. She lives in Dublin.
Rooney completed her first novel—which she has described as "absolute trash"—at the age of 15.

L'histoire se passe en Irlande. Connell et Marianne se rencontre au lycée. Il est le gars que tout le monde veut avoir comme copain, elle est la fille que personne ne fréquente. Ils tombent amoureux... et une relation compliquée commence. Tout au long du livre, ils vont s'éloigner, se rapprocher... mais toujours s'aimer.
Je ne suis pas un grand fan des romances, mais ici c'est avant tout le style de l'auteure qui fait la différence. Des phrases courtes, beaucoup de dialogues non-marqués vous font vivre l'histoire comme si vous étiez DANS l'histoire. Alors, oui, parfois la simplicité du style peut laisser un arrière goût de superficialité... Mais, moi, j'aime qu'un roman me raconte une histoire et si c'est une belle histoire, c'est encore mieux. Et comme parfois je suis un peu fleur bleue si c'est une belle histoire d'amour, je craque.… (plus d'informations)
