El libro más esperado del año. Los 100 mejores libros del 2024 de Time Magazine Uno de los 100 libros más notables del 2024 según el New York Times La nueva novela de Sally Rooney, la aclamada autora de Gente normal. «El fenómeno literario de la década». -The Guardian «Literatura en mayúsculas». -El País A pesar de ser hermanos, Peter e Ivan Koubek tienen poco en común. Peter, de treinta y pocos, es un carismático y renombrado abogado en Dublín de apariencia inquebrantable. Tras la muerte de su padre, lucha por mantener bajo control su caótica vida personal. Se medica para poder dormir y manejar la relación sentimental que mantiene con dos mujeres muy diferentes: su eterno primer amor, Sylvia, y Naomi, una estudiante universitaria que no se toma la vida muy enserio. Ivan, de veintidós años, es un ajedrecista de carácter reservado, rígido en su actitud y aparentemente poco empático, que se ve a sí mismo como la antítesis de su hermano mayor, al que considera superficial y hablador. Pocos días después del funeral, Ivan conocerá a Margaret, una mujer catorce años mayor, y sus vidas se entrelazarán rápida e intensamente. Intermezzo es un nuevo interludio para dos hermanos afligidos y las personas que aman, un tiempo cargado de deseo y desesperación, pero también de posibilidades. Una oportunidad para descubrir cuánto puede contener una vida sin romperse. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION One of the New York Times's 100 Notable Books of 2024 Time's 100 Must-Read Books of 2024 An exquisitely moving story about grief, love, and family—but especially love—from the global phenomenon Sally Rooney. Aside from the fact that they are brothers, Peter and Ivan Koubek seem to have little in common. Peter is a Dublin lawyer in his thirties—successful, competent, and apparently unassailable. But in the wake of their father’s death, he’s medicating himself to sleep and struggling to manage his relationships with two very different women—his enduring first love, Sylvia, and Naomi, a college student for whom life is one long joke. Ivan is a twenty-two-year-old competitive chess player. He has always seen himself as socially awkward, a loner, the antithesis of his glib elder brother. Now, in the early weeks of his bereavement, Ivan meets Margaret, an older woman emerging from her own turbulent past, and their lives become rapidly and intensely intertwined. For two grieving brothers and the people they love, this is a new interlude—a period of desire, despair, and possibility; a chance to find out how much one life might hold inside itself without breaking.
