Mr Salary
by Sally Rooney
Faber Stories, a landmark series of individual volumes, presents masters of the short story form at work in a range of genres and styles.
My love for him felt so total and so annihilating that it was often impossible for me to see him clearly at all.
Years ago, Sukie moved in with Nathan because her mother was dead and her father was difficult, and she had nowhere else to go. Now they are on the brink of the inevitable.
Sally Rooney is one of the most acclaimed young talents of recent years. With her minute attention to the power dynamics in everyday speech, she builds up sexual tension and throws a deceptively low-key glance at love and death.
Bringing together past, present and future in our ninetieth year, Faber Stories is a celebratory compendium of collectable work.
