An urgently timely, deeply personal and powerfully moving series of essays on the experience of lockdown from one of the most clear-sighted and essential writers of our time
Zadie Smith is the author of the novels White Teeth, The Autograph Man, On Beauty, NW and Swing Time; as well as a novella, The Embassy of Cambodia; three collections of essays, Changing My Mind, Feel Free and Intimations; a collection of short stories, Grand Union; and the play, The Wife of Willesden, adapted from Chaucer. She is also the editor of The Book of Other People. Zadie Smith was born in north-west London, where she still lives. The Fraud is her first historical novel.
As well as offering a new guide to living in a wild, messy and
unfair world, Smith provides a reminder that we can use this crisis
to imagine a better one
*Evening Standard*
Smith has the gift that she attributed to Nabokov, years ago, of
making any reader of her work feel they are engaged in a creative
act, discoveringthe felicities of her writing.
