“扎迪·史密斯是一位出色的散文家。她天生如此。她随心所欲地写作，而且思路清晰，精准无误。”——泰莎·哈德利，《卫报》

在这本备受期待的新作中，扎迪·史密斯运用她独特的散文技巧，探讨了近年来引起她关注的一系列主题。

在这本激动人心的合集里，扎迪·史密斯再次向我们展示了她的能力，她以批判性和人性化的视角，思考我们这个动荡时代紧迫的问题和趋势。

An illuminating new essay collection from one of the most distinctive, exciting and acclaimed writers of her generation, Zadie Smith

‘Zadie Smith is a wonderful essayist. She is a natural. She writes as she thinks, and she thinks crisply and exactly’ – Tessa Hadley, Guardian

In this keenly awaited new collection, Zadie Smith brings her unique skills as an essayist to bear on a range of subjects which have captured her attention in recent years.

She takes an exhilaratingly close look at artists Toyin Ojih Odutola, Kara Walker and Celia Paul. She invites us along to the movies, to see and to think about Tár, and to Glastonbury to witness the ascendance of Stormzy. She takes us on a walk down Kilburn High Road in her beloved North West London and invites us to mourn with her the passing of writers Joan Didion, Martin Amis, Hilary Mantel, Philip Roth and Toni Morrison. She considers changes of government on both sides of the Atlantic – and the meaning of ‘the commons’ in all our lives.

Throughout this thrilling collection, Zadie Smith shows us once again her unrivalled ability to think through critically and humanely some of the most urgent preoccupations and tendencies of our troubled times.
