But when the two strike up a conversation - awkward but electrifying - something life changing begins. A year later, they’re both studying at Trinity College in Dublin. Marianne has found her feet in a new social world while Connell hangs at the sidelines, shy and uncertain. Throughout their years at university, Marianne and Connell circle one another.

Peter is a Dublin lawyer in his thirties—successful, competent, and apparently unassailable. But in the wake of their father’s death, he’s medicating himself to sleep and struggling to manage his relationships with two very different women—his enduring first love, Sylvia, and Naomi, a college student for whom life is one long joke. Ivan is a twenty-two-year-old competitive chess player. He has always seen himself as socially awkward, a loner, the antithesis of his glib elder brother. Now, in the early weeks of his bereavement, Ivan meets Margaret.

Frances is 21 years-old, cool-headed and observant. A student in Dublin and an aspiring writer, at night she performs spoken word with her best friend Bobbi, who used to be her girlfriend.

But when Frances and Nick get unexpectedly closer, the sharply witty and emotion-averse Frances is forced to honestly confront her own vulnerabilities for the first time.

A parte il fatto di essere fratelli, Peter e Ivan Koubek sembrano avere poco in comune. Peter è un avvocato di Dublino sui trent'anni - affermato, abile e apparentemente irreprensibile. Ma, ora che gli è morto il padre, prende farmaci per dormire e si barcamena con fatica fra due relazioni con donne molto diverse: il primo, imperituro amore, Sylvia, e Naomi, una studentessa universitaria per cui la vita è un'unica lunga barzelletta. Ivan è un campione di scacchi ventiduenne. Si è sempre considerato uno sfigato, un paria, l'antitesi del suo disinvolto fratello maggiore.

Frances è troppo intelligente per innamorarsi di un uomo sposato. O almeno cosí pensava prima di incontrare Nick. Bobbi, la sua ex amante, e Melissa, la moglie di Nick, sono troppo moderne e consapevoli per essere gelose. O almeno così pensavano. "Parlarne tra amici" si può leggere come una commedia romantica o un manifesto femminista. Si può leggere come un libro sul tradimento ai tempi di WhatsApp o su ciò che nei rapporti di coppia non cambia mai. Ma in qualsiasi modo si decida di leggerlo, "Parlarne tra amici" è un romanzo universale sui complicati capricci dell'amore.

Connell e Marianne frequentano la stessa scuola di Carricklea, un piccolo centro dell'Irlanda rurale appena fuori Sligo. A parte questo, non hanno niente in comune. Lei appartiene a una famiglia agiata e guasta che non le fa mancare nulla tranne i fondamenti dell'amore e del rispetto. Lui è il figlio di una donna pratica e premurosa che per mantenerlo fa la domestica in casa d'altri (quella della madre di Marianne). Nell'inventario di vantaggi e svantaggi, l'inferiorità economica di Connell è bilanciata sul piano sociale.
