'Seriously good' Louise Nealon

PICKED AS 'ONE TO WATCH' FOR 2022 BY IRISH TIMES, STYLIST AND IRISH INDEPENDENT

Dublin student life is ending for Sophie and her friends. They’ve got everything figured out, and Sophie feels left behind as they all start to go their separate ways. She’s overshadowed by her best friend Grace. She’s been in love with Finn for as long as she’s known him. And she’s about to meet Rory, who's suddenly available to her online.

At a party, what was already unstable completely falls apart and Sophie finds herself obsessively scrolling social media, waiting for something (anything) to happen.

None of This Is Serious is about the uncertainty and absurdity of being alive today. It’s about balancing the real world with the online, and the vulnerabilities in yourself, your relationships, your body. At its heart, this is a novel about the friendships strong enough to withstand anything.

This audiobook contains an exclusive interview with author Catherine Prasifka and narrator Simone Collins.

Reseñas de la crítica

"An extraordinary novel. None of This Is Serious brilliantly explores the impossibility to "come of age" in end times, where screens are so contiguous to experience that no-one is ever truly online or offline. She writes truthfully and with affectless nuance about the labyrinthine workings of friend groups and the defences women scramble for in a world that still hates us" (NAOISE DOLAN, author of EXCITING TIMES)
"I inhaled None of This Is Serious. I’ve been waiting for a fictional story that reflects the all-consuming influence that the Internet has on my life. None of This Is Serious is that story. A compulsively readable, fresh and painfully accurate description of the way we live now. Don’t let the title fool you. It is serious. Seriously good" (LOUISE NEALON, author of SNOWFLAKE)
"Edgy . . . [Prasifka] has a painfully raw and acute gift for catching the way things are"
"I absolutely LOVED this novel. Beautifully crafted" (EMMA GANNON, author of OLIVE)
"Fortunately, [Prasifka] doesn’t need any sprinkling of Rooney’s fairy dust; she makes her own magic. In the seriously good None of This is Serious, the 26-year-old author conveys what it’s like to be a young woman today navigating life in Dublin and online . . . She is an astute observer of the social dynamics of her generation"
"A beautifully written original take on how we’re all guilty of taking refuge online as the world around us becomes increasingly confusing"
"[A] funny, endearingly heartfelt debut"
"As we adapt to our increasingly online lives, Catherine Prasifka's debut is the antidote we never knew we needed. We meet Sophie, Prasifka's ultra-relatable protagonist, at a precarious time in her life: leaving university. What happens next is a worthy reminder that Instagram /= reality"
"None of This Is Serious is brilliant – so devastatingly precise about being a young woman living in Ireland and online today, moving deftly between sharp, hilarious observations and heartbreaking, enraging moments" (CLAIRE HENNESSY, author of LIKE OTHER GIRLS)
"None of This Is Serious is such a compelling novel, and Sophie is such a relatable character – reading her story felt like one of those meaningful and immersive conversations you can only have with a stranger at 3am in the toilets of a dingy club, all hearts laid bare. At times agonisingly close to the bone, Catherine Prasifka's debut novel is an exquisitely unnerving portrayal of who we are and how we live" (KATIE HALE, author of MY NAME IS MONSTER)
