Recensioner i media

"A preternaturally gifted new writer [with] a voice that's street-smart and learned, sassy and philosophical all at the same time."-Michiko Kakutani, "The New York Times <br>""Brilliant.... Smith is a master at detail...a postmodern Charles Dickens...[Smith's] rich storytelling and wicked wit are suited to the sights and smells of the world that England has inherited."-"The" "Washington Post<br>"<br>"[A] vibrant, rollicking first novel about race and idenity...[Smith's] prickly wit is affectionate and poignant."-"People" <br>"[A] dazzling intergenerational first novel...wonderfully inventive...playful yet unaffected, mongrel yet cohesive, profound yet funny, vernacular yet lyrical. "-"Los Angeles Times" <br>"[A] marvel of a debut novel. . .Reminscent of both Salman Rushdie and John Irving, White Teeth is a comic, canny, sprawling tale, adeptly held together by Smith's literary sleight of hand."-"Entertainment Weekly<br>"<br>"A magnificent and audacious novel, jampacked with memorable characters and challenging ideas."-"The" "Atlanta Journal & Constitution<br>"<br>"Ambitious, earnest and irreverent. . . Smith has a real talent for comedy and a fond eye for human foibles."-"The" "Wall Street Journal" <p>"Wonderful.... Zadie Smith...possesses a more than ordinary share of talent."-"USA Today <br>""Smith has an astonishing intellect. She writes sharp dialogue for every age and race-- and she's funny as hell."-"Newsweek"<br>"<br>"["White Teeth"] "is, like the London it portrays, a restless hybrid of voices, tones, and textures...with a raucous energy and confidence."-"The New York Times Book Review<br>"<br>"Fresh...spirited...this extravagant novel bursts with optimism about people, aboutlanguage, and perhaps, above all, about novels and the joy, indeed the impertinence, of writing one."-"The Philadelphia Inquirer<br>"<br> "Blissfully confident, wide-ranging and funny from the get-go, White Teeth...promises-and delivers-a wildly inventive journey into a fresh imagination."-"Rocky Mountain News<br>"<br> "Brilliant.... Smith is a master at detail.... Like a postmodern Dickens, she has a flair for features, dress, dialogue, accents and human frailty."-"The Miami Herald<br>"<br> "It's a treat to watch an immensely gifted young writer performing, for the very first time, such an admirably audacious and ambitious juggling act."-"Elle<br>"<br> "Absolutely delicious.... Smith's voice is a perfect balance of tragedy and comedy."-"The Tampa Tribune and Times <br>""Gently observant and generous in its judgments.... Filled with vibrant life."-"The" "San Diego Union--Tribune<br>"<br>"Brilliant.... Bubbles and pops in its imaginative intensity."-"The Baltimore Sun<br>"
