"Diana Reid will be called the new Sally Rooney – you’re
certain of it by the end of page one. By the end of this real, raw
and startling novel, you know Reid is the talent to whom every
smart young novelist who follows her will be compared – or hope
to be." – Meg Mason, author of Sorrow and Bliss Charlie’s skin
was stinging. Not with heat or sweat, but with that intense,
body-defining self-consciousness—that sense of being watched. She
lowered her eyes from Eleanor’s loving gaze. Her throat taut with
tears, she swallowed. ‘You’re a good sister, Eleanor.’
‘Don’t say that.’ After two years of lockdowns, there’s
change in the air. Eleanor has just broken up with her boyfriend,
Charlie’s career as an actress is starting up again. They’re
finally ready to pursue their dreams—relationships, career,
family—if only they can work out what it is they really want.
When principles and desires clash, Eleanor and Charlie are forced
to ask: where is the line between self-love and selfishness? In all
their confusion, mistakes will be made and lies will be told as
they reckon with the limits of their own self-awareness. Seeing
Other People is the darkly funny story of two very different
sisters, and the summer that stretches their relationship almost to
breaking point.
