Smith Zadie Swing Time
'Superb. One of the most entertaining novels you'll read this year' Times Literary Supplement How do we become who we are? Can we ever truly escape our origins? Must we dance to the music of our time? Set in London, New York and West Africa, Swing Time is about two brown girls from Willesden who dram of being dancers. Only one - Tracey - has talent. But the other has ideas which take her further than she could ever imagined. It is a story of finding happiness in the meanest of places and feeling sad when all around you are happy. It's about the choices we make and the choices made for us. Above all, it's a tale of the friendships that anchor us, define us, and change us for ever. 'Smith's finest [novel]. Truly marvelous, so extraordinary. Has brilliant things to say about race, class and gender' Observer 'A thrilling, multi-layered tour de force' Los Angeles Times 'Smith has never written better. Her dialogue is pitch-perfect, her comic timing masterful Daily Telegraph, Books of the Year

Why do we fall in love with the people we do? Why do we visit our mistakes on our children? What makes life truly beautiful? Set between New England and London, On Beauty concerns a pair of feuding families - the Belseys and the Kipps - and a clutch of doomed affairs. It puts low morals among high ideals and asks some searching questions about what life does to love. For the Belseys and the Kipps, the confusions - both personal and political - of our uncertain age are about to be brought close to home: right to the heart of family.

Interleaving ten completely new and unpublished stories with some of her best-loved pieces from the New Yorker and elsewhere, Zadie Smith presents a dizzyingly rich and varied collection of fiction. Moving exhilaratingly across genres and perspectives, from the historic to the vividly current to the slyly dystopian, Grand Union is a sharply alert and prescient collection about time and place, identity and rebirth, the persistent legacies that haunt our present selves and the uncanny futures that rush up to meet us.
