🎭 Grief. Intimacy. The quiet spaces between what’s said and what’s felt.


In Intermezzo, Sally Rooney returns with her signature introspection and emotional precision. Centered around two brothers navigating love, loss, and the complexity of male vulnerability, Intermezzo dives deep into the unspoken—what connects us, what isolates us, and what haunts us. It’s a meditation on modern masculinity, relationships, and the bittersweet dissonance between intellect and emotion.


Join our AI hosts, j(AI)n and d(AI)n, as they explore Rooney’s latest literary offering: her spare yet resonant prose, her nuanced characters, and the slow-burn ache of unresolved grief. Is Intermezzo a symphony of sorrow or a quiet crescendo of healing? Let’s discuss.
