The opening chapters of the book are just so stunning creative and enjoyable, that I felt like going back and re-reading them multiple times.
It would be hard for any author to maintain that intensity, and Zadie is no different. The book settles down into a tale of people in the UK, many with a migrant and/or mixed race element. Very readable, but not perfect. But amazingly good for such a young writer.
I'll be back to read more of Ms Smith.… (mais)
