Connell und Marianne wachsen in derselben Kleinstadt im Westen Irlands auf, aber das ist auch schon ihre einzige Gemeinsamkeit. Connell ist der Star im Footballteam, Marianne die komische Außenseiterin. Doch als die beiden zum ersten Mal miteinander reden, geschieht etwas mit ihnen, das ihr Leben verändert. Und auch später, an der Universität in Dublin, werden sie, obwohl sie versuchen, einander fern zu bleiben, immer wieder magnetisch, unwiderstehlich voneinander angezogen. Lisa Hrdinas Lesung erzählt authentisch und wahrhaftig, was es heute heißt, jung und verliebt zu sein.

It takes us from that first conversation to the years beyond, in the company of two people who try to stay apart but find they can't.

Sociogenomics brings together advances in molecular genetics and traditional social and behavioral science. The key tool is the polygenic index, which allows us to analyze DNA to measure a child's genetic potential. Today, we can estimate a child's adult height, how far they will go in school, and their weight as an adult—all from a cheek swab, finger prick, or vial of saliva. Dalton Conley and other researchers are using this new science to shed light on the ways in which genes shape our world, influencing how each person both creates and responds to the environment around them.
