WE THAT ARE YOUNG

BEAUTIFUL WORLD, WHERE ARE YOU

by Sally Rooney

FABER & FABER

699; 352 pages

Sally Rooney is quite the figure of this particular time, a time when authors are also brands, and what they tweet about and look like can often not be set aside while reading their works. This is the affliction of reading Rooney—especially when one of her four central characters, Alice, seems to be based on herself. You see, Alice is a young, attractive woman and a celebrity author and she is grudgingly unhappy about all these things. She has also spent time at a psychiatric facility for what seems like professional burnout.
