Intermezzo: A Novel by Sally Rooney Format:Hardcover Those are the last words

Those are the last words Jason Dessen hears before the masked abductor knocks him unconscious

Brimming with empathy and pathos

he begins to look for pros and cons: in the bully who is his perpetual one-night stand

and her very presence may upset the delicate balance between two worlds

but it is more than that: It is the source of so much that still defines the United States
