When it comes to Irish literature, Normal People by Sally Rooney is one of the biggest success stories in recent memory.
The book was nominated for the Man Booker Prize in 2018, while it was also voted as the 2018 Waterstones' Book of the Year and it won Best Novel at the 2018 Costa Book Awards.
To put it bluntly, people absolutely loved it.

The show stars Daisy Edgar Jones as Marianne and Paul Mescal as Connell.
