A review by carolinebl
White Teeth by Zadie Smith

funny reflective slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
My main complaint is that the end should have been longer! Such a build up just to finish without clarity.
I loved the scale of this novel, and as Smith’s debut it is especially impressive; I look forward to reading her later work. It is an interesting picture of Britain at the millennium.
