But when the two strike up a conversation - awkward but electrifying - something life changing begins. A year later, they’re both studying at Trinity College in Dublin.

In Dublin, her best friend, Eileen, is getting over a break-up, and slips back into flirting with Simon, a man she has known since childhood.

As she traverses a grittier Manhattan, a city anxious after an attack by a still-at-large subway vigilante, she encounters bartenders, bodega clerks, chauffeurs, security guards, bohemians, criminals, children, parents, and parents to be in surprising moments of generosity and grace. While she strolls Lillian recalls a long and eventful life that included a brief reign as the highest paid advertising woman in America - a career cut short by marriage, motherhood, divorce, and a breakdown.

Frances è troppo intelligente per innamorarsi di un uomo sposato. O almeno cosí pensava prima di incontrare Nick. Bobbi, la sua ex amante, e Melissa, la moglie di Nick, sono troppo moderne e consapevoli per essere gelose. O almeno così pensavano. "Parlarne tra amici" si può leggere come una commedia romantica o un manifesto femminista. Si può leggere come un libro sul tradimento ai tempi di WhatsApp o su ciò che nei rapporti di coppia non cambia mai. Ma in qualsiasi modo si decida di leggerlo, "Parlarne tra amici" è un romanzo universale sui complicati capricci dell'amore.

Connell e Marianne frequentano la stessa scuola di Carricklea, un piccolo centro dell'Irlanda rurale appena fuori Sligo. A parte questo, non hanno niente in comune. Lei appartiene a una famiglia agiata e guasta che non le fa mancare nulla tranne i fondamenti dell'amore e del rispetto. Lui è il figlio di una donna pratica e premurosa che per mantenerlo fa la domestica in casa d'altri (quella della madre di Marianne). Nell'inventario di vantaggi e svantaggi, l'inferiorità economica di Connell è bilanciata sul piano sociale.

Simon ama da sempre la stessa donna, ma da sempre ne frequenta altre. Felix passa in birreria il tempo libero dal lavoro di magazziniere, ma la sua è una fuga. Alice, Eileen, Simon e Felix si parlano, si fraintendono, si deludono e si amano e, mentre attraversano il cerchio di fuoco dei trent’anni, si chiedono se esista davvero, al di là, ancora, un mondo bello in cui sperare.
