    I really like the interviewer and her questions. Very understated and allows Sally to expand on her theories and ideas without interrupting her.

      The interview with Kishani Widrayatna was much more natural and pleasant to listen to because Kishani was really listening and responding to Sally's answers instead of just following her list of questions. I highly recommend that one.
      I didn't know until the very end that the interviewer here was actually Sheila Heti?! Sally mentions her books often and compliments her writing style.

      I really enjoyed Sheila’s questions and Sally’s answers. Sheila brought up things I didnt think to ask especially the question about the secrecy of these relationships

    I think it's so wonderful that there is a "new wave" of Irish writing. In this digital age where witing short stories and novels seems ancient I think that this it is great that Ireland preserves this art form. I understand there has been a great revival in Irish music in Ireland as well.

      James Dolan I’m on board with you on that. Although ‘Normal People’ is a great love story(when solely looking at it in the context of a love story) it is marked not only with so many references to Irish culture, but has strong links to Oscar Wilde in the spirit of Irish radicalism.

      I believe the same is happening all over "The West" in one way or another, I live in Belgium and here historic romances are also being revived. They're not my cup of tea because they're very moralistic, but it's nice to notice how older traditions are given a breath of fresh air and I'm interested to see how a new generation would react to these kind of stories.

      @@eoharafisher Let me see an English Graduate from Trinity Collage Dublin debating an actual Professor of Psychology from the University of Toronto, formerly of Harvard University? Ms Rooney might be millionaire marxist and write good fiction but she's an intellectual lightweight. Her views on Marxism are puke inducing. She should stick to fiction. Marxism is a murderous ideology. The same as Nazism. People need to remember just how murderous Marxism was in the 20th century. There was no worker's utopia. There never is. It killed up to 100 million people, in countries/cultures that varied greatly but always the same end result. POVERTY & DEATH! She is nothing but ignorant. Imagine if she instead declared herself a Nazi? For me Rooney's endorsement of Marxism is as disgusting and ignorant as Neo-Nazi's celebrating Nazism. I'd recommend maybe read a real book called The Gulag Archipelago by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. Now theres a guy who is more brilliant than Sally Rooney could ever imagine but you've only heard of the fiction writer from County Mayo!

      ​@@gerardburke2517 She is clearly an intelligent person. I would say her views on Marxism are naive. Puke inducing is a bit dramatic. Marxism as a theory seems great and we could only wish it worked as intended but history has shown us it doesn't. At same time capitalism doesn't necessarily work either and has a dark side we tend to ignore so I can understand why many are tempted by the ideals of Marxism

      @@gerardburke2517 Are you aware that there's a difference between the utopian vision of Marxism and Marxism as a science -- a science that describes the intersection of human history and economics? Because in the latter respect, mainstream economists will tell you that the science of economics owes a debt to Marx for being the first thinker to identify the revolution in ownership and production that we now understand to be capitalism. You're correct that Marxism is, in part, a revolutionary ideology, but in the minds of Ms. Rooney and millions of other people, is a method of critique before a vision of the future. You are conflating Marxism and revolutionary communism, two related but ultimately separate ideas. Marxism as critique is a mainstream idea. I think you are just scared of the word.
      For the reasons above, the comparison to Nazism is naive. Nazism had no ideological coherence and did not constitute a science. There is no cogent "Nazi" critique of capitalism.

    On the one hand I find her so interesting, engaging and intelligent. On the other she can be very overbearing in a way that makes me feel sorry for people who have to spend any decent amount of time around her. Maybe it's her age.
