A quick update on Zadie Smith's newest novel, which will be released later this year: It's called
NW, and it follows five northwest London residents who have "made it out" of a local housing estate. (The estate in question
takes its building names from the major British political philosophers, so now's a good time to dust off that textbook, probably.)
As always, things get dicey when a stranger shows up. The full description is
here;
NW is due out on September 4.
