"Alice, a novelist, meets Felix, who works in a warehouse, and asks him
if he’d like to travel to Rome with her. In Dublin, her best friend
Eileen is getting over a break-up and slips back into flirting with
Simon, a man she has known since childhood.
Alice, Felix, Eileen
and Simon are still young – but life is catching up with them. They
desire each other, they delude each other, they get together, they break
apart. They worry about sex and friendship and the world they live in.
Are they standing in the last lighted room before the darkness, bearing
witness to something? Will they find a way to believe in a beautiful
world?" (faber.co.uk)
