From Barnes & NobleBritish author Zadie Smith was relatively unknown in America when Barnes & Noble booksellers made her debut book White Teeth a 2000 Discover selection. (The fiction earned a place subsequently on Time's list of the 100 Best English Novels of the modern period.) In hardcover, this novel about four young Londoners trying to make their way in the world received glowing reviews and solid sales everywhere; now it's in trade paperback and NOOK Book.
The Washington Post…a complicated novel that's endlessly fascinating…The impression of Smith's casual brilliance is what constantly surprises, the way she tosses off insights about parenting and work that you've felt in some nebulous way but never been able to articulate.
