Sally Rooney is definitely a master of short-form fiction. It’s amazing how she can create such detailed impressions of characters in so few words. Reading this and observing the relationship between Sukie and Nathan is like watching a car crash - you know it’s going to end in disaster but you physically can’t look away. I definitely see myself returning to this short story in the future.

There is sexual tension between a twenty-four year old and a thirty-eight year old, as well as a theme is nihilism permeating throughout the story.booksandvinyl's review
