Sally Rooney reflects on her evolution as a writer, stating, "I feel like the older I get the more freedom I have to write about a greater range of life experiences." At 33, she embraces the depth gained from her years, seeking to expand away from being labeled as a voice of millennial angst since her debut. She's eager to shed the label and simply be recognized for her talent rather than age.
Rooney yearns to distance herself from the whirlwind of fame, saying, "I really feel like I'm not lying when I say I'm quite keen to leave that all behind... I didn't actually want to be the young novelist; I just wanted to be good." This sentiment echoes her deeper aspiration to be perceived solely as an accomplished writer, not defined by her youth or social media.
