The Book Shed

About As New in all respects. First printing, full number line. " Smith once said that it wasn't the job of the novelist "to tell us how somebody felt about something, it's to tell us how the world works." In NW, she's done both. She's given us a book soggy with feelings but one that illustrates how political identities—race, class, sexual orientation—influence our putatively personal decisions, how our choices are as distinctive as our fingerprints. NW is Zadie Smith's riskiest, meanest, most political and deeply felt book—but it all feels so effortless." —Parul Sehgal --Bookforum.
