Hulu's New Series 'Normal People' Highlights the Cycle of Abuse in Romantic Relationships
“Normal People” is a new Hulu series based on the 2018 Sally Rooney novel of the same title. The series follows two Irish young adults, Marianne (played by Daisy Edgar-Jones) and Connell (played by Paul Mescal), through their final year of secondary school and their undergraduate years at Trinity College in Dublin. Although the show jumps around a bit, it primarily focuses on Connell and Marianne’s unbreakable bond and romantic attraction. The two, who come from very different walks of life, continuously seem to weave in and out of each other’s romantic lives.
