Description

Connell e Marianne cresceram na mesma pequena cidade da Irlanda, mas as semelhanças acabam aqui. Na escola, Connell é popular e bem-visto por todos, enquanto Marianne é uma solitária que aprendeu com dolorosas experiências a manter-se à margem dos colegas. Quando têm uma animada conversa na cozinha de Marianne — difícil, mas eletrizante —, as suas vidas começam a mudar. Pessoas Normais é uma história de fascínio, amizade e amor mútuos, que acompanha a vida de um casal que tenta separar-se mas que acaba por entender que não o consegue fazer. Mostra-nos como é complicado mudar o que somos. E, com uma sensibilidade espantosa, revela-nos o modo como aprendemos sobre sexo e poder, o desejo de magoar e ser magoado, de amar e ser amado.
