--------------------------------------------

世纪末，北伦敦。这里有世界上所有的肤色，以及相同的雪白牙齿。

毫无信仰的白人阿吉一辈子都靠掷硬币作决定，三十年 的婚姻突然破裂，自杀未遂的他与牙买加黑人姑娘闪电般再入围城。他的二战战友萨马德，来自孟加拉，出身高贵，教育良好，在英国却只能端盘子为生。萨马德的双胞胎长子被送回孟加拉，却倾心仰慕西方文明，比英国人还英国人；次子从小在伦敦街头呼风唤雨，却对西方充满仇恨，加入激进组织……

《白牙》以诙谐跳脱的笔触将不同种族的信仰与文化的交锋、几代人之间观念的断裂和错层，以及时代的流变和历史的荒诞，浓缩于北伦敦种族混杂的几个街区之间，刻画出一幅复杂深广的后殖民时代移民生活的图景。

White Teeth is the story of three very different families who live close together in London in the 1980s and 1990s. The Bowdens are part-Jamaican; the Iqbals are from Bangladesh; and the Chalfens are white. The story looks at how people's pasts affect their lives now, and the lives and futures of their children.
