Today, I am going to be breaking down the incredibly popular novel, Normal People, and its subsequent BBC Three adaptation. I will speak about the two major criticisms the book faces and analyze some of the key moments in Connell and Marianne's story. And, hopefully, by the end of this video, you'll have an idea of whether or not Normal People is a story that is worth your time and brain space.
