White Teeth

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of White Teeth by Zadie Smith, read by Lenny Henry, Sagar Arya, Pippa Bennett-Warner and Ray Panthaki.

From the MAN BOOKER PRIZE- and WOMEN'S PRIZE-SHORTLISTED author of Swing Time, On Beauty and Grand Union

'BELIEVE THE HYPE' The Times

'The almost preposterous talent was clear from the first pages' Julian Barnes, Guardian

'Street-smart and learned, sassy and philosophical all at the same time' New York Times

'Outstanding' Sunday Telegraph

The international bestseller and modern classic of multicultural Britain - an unforgettable portrait of London

One of the most talked about debut novels of all time, White Teeth is a funny, generous, big-hearted novel, adored by critics and readers alike. Dealing - among many other things - with friendship, love, war, three cultures and three families over three generations, one brown mouse, and the tricky way the past has of coming back and biting you on the ankle, it is a life-affirming, riotous must-read of a book.

Reviews

Funny, clever ... and a rollicking good read

—— Independent

Do believe the hype, buy into it, curl up with it, savour every sentence, then turn around and re-read

—— The Times

An impressive début, not only for its vitality and verve, but mainly for the sheer audacity of its scope and vision ... an epic tale ... swooping, funny ... it has ambition, wit and is unafraid

—— Meera Syal , Express

Announces the debut of a preternaturally gifted new writer ... street-smart and learned, sassy and philosophical all at the same time

—— The New York Times

Relentlessly funny ... idiosyncratic, and deeply felt

—— Guardian

An astonishingly assured début, funny and serious ... I was delighted

—— Salman Rushdie

She is . . . a George Eliot of multi-culturalism

—— Daily Telegraph

[Zadie Smith] is one of the prominent voices of her generation

—— Sunday Times

Britain's finest young author

—— The List

[Zadie Smith] packs more intelligence, humour and sheer energy into any given scene than anyone else of her generation

—— Sunday Telegraph

[White Teeth] established a model for how to make sense-and art-out of the complexity, diversity and pluck that have defined the beginning of this century
