Description
Zadie Smith burst onto the literary scene having written her first work while she was still an undergraduate. That fast-paced and elegantly written novel has a complex plot and fascinating characters and set a standard and pattern she has sustained through more novels and critical essays, some of which have now been collected. Her fiction provides readers with stories that are both entertaining and thought-provoking, and her essays do so, as well. Poking fun at political, academic, and literary pretensions, she leaves no-one unskewered, including herself. Start with: White Teeth (fiction); Changing my Mind: Occasional Essays (nonfiction)
