After a year, they’re both studying at Trinity College. Marianne has found herself in a new social world, while Connell remains stuck at the sidelines, shy but unsure. Marianne and Connell have been circling each other for years, and they’ve always been irresistibly drawn back together again. As she veers into self-destruction, he begins to search for his own meaning. Each must confront how far they’re willing to go to save each other.
