Zadie Smith, the critically acclaimed author of White Teeth and The Autograph reads from her new novel On Beauty, which was short-listed for the Man Booker Prize for Fiction. Set on both sides of the Atlantic, Smith’s very funny third novel is a brilliant analysis of family life, the institution of marriage, intersections of the personal and political, and an honest look at people’s deceptions.
($25.95) Penguin ISBN 1-59420-063-7. Visit Zadie Smith’s page at the British Council for the Arts web site.
