Beautiful World, Where Are You: A Novel

Beautiful World, Where Are You by Sally Rooney follows four young friends—Alice, a novelist; Felix, a warehouse worker; Eileen, Alice’s best friend; and Simon, Eileen’s longtime acquaintance—as they navigate love, desire, friendship, and the challenges of adulthood. Set between Dublin and Rome, the novel explores intimacy, self-delusion, and the search for meaning in a world that feels increasingly uncertain, asking whether they can still believe in a beautiful world.
