Beautiful World's themes include romance, friendship, precarity, and social class. The title comes from a poem by Friedrich Schiller which Franz Schubert set to music in 1819.
The novel includes substantial epistolary elements, such as emails between Kelleher and Lydon.

Alice, a novelist, meets Felix, who works in a warehouse, and asks him if he'd like to travel to Rome with her. In Dublin, her best friend Eileen is getting over a break-up and slips back into flirting with Simon, a man she has known since childhood.
Alice, Felix, Eileen and Simon are still young - but life is catching up with them. They desire each other, they delude each other, they worry about sex and friendship and the times they live in. Will they find a way to believe in a beautiful world?
