![White Teeth | [Zadie Smith]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/410a1kByOvL._SL175_.jpg)
"Multicultural comedy of manners (and more)"
I have listened to On Beauty and loved it, but White Teeth really bites into the depth of the divide between east and west, Muslim and Christian (and atheist) with a marvelously rendered set of characters. The plot does have a long developmental arc, but that seems beside the point. The characters and the subplots are of sufficient interest in themselves. The resolution was a bit over the top, but this book isn't about realism. All of the loose ends were tied up in a not-too-tidy bundle, because this story is anything but tidy.
Jenny Sterlin does a great job with the narration.3 of 3 people found this review helpful
