Product Information
"Smith's thrilling cultural insights never overshadow the wholeness of her characters, who are so keenly observed that one feels witness to their lives." --O, The Oprah Magazine "A sweeping meditation on art, race, and identity that may be [Smith's] most ambitious work yet." -- Esquire A New York Times bestseller * Finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award for Fiction * Longlisted for the Man Booker Prize An ambitious, exuberant new novel moving from North West London to West Africa, from the multi-award-winning author of White Teeth and On Beauty . Two brown girls dream of being dancers--but only one, Tracey, has talent. The other has ideas: about rhythm and time, about black bodies and black music, what constitutes a tribe, or makes a person truly free. It's a close but complicated childhood friendship that ends abruptly in their early twenties, never to be revisited, but never quite forgotten, either. Tracey makes it to the chorus line but struggles with adult life, while her friend leaves the old neighborhood behind, traveling the world as an assistant to a famous singer, Aimee, observing close up how the one percent live. But when Aimee develops grand philanthropic ambitions, the story moves from London to West Africa, where diaspora tourists travel back in time to find their roots, young men risk their lives to escape into a different future, the women dance just like Tracey--the same twists, the same shakes--and the origins of a profound inequality are not a matter of distant history, but a present dance to the music of time. Zadie Smith's newest book, Grand Union , published in 2019.

Reviews
"Agile and discerning...With homage to dance as a unifying force, arresting observations...exceptionally diverse and magnetizing characters, and lashing satire, Swing Time is an acidly funny, fluently global, and head-spinning novel about the quest for meaning, exaltation, and love...This tale of friendship lost and found is going to be big."-- Booklist (starred) "The narrative moves deftly and absorbingly between its increasingly tense coming-of-age story and the adult life of the sympathetic if nave and sometimes troubling narrator...A rich and sensitive drama highly recommended for all readers."-- Library Journal (starred) "A keen, controlled novel about dance and blackness steps onto a stage of cultural land mines...Smith is dazzling in her specificity, evoking predicaments, worldviews, and personalities with a camera-vivid precision...Moving, funny, and grave, this novel parses race and global politics with Fred Astaire's or Michael Jackson's grace."-- Kirkus Reviews (starred) "As ever, Smith plies her signature humor and sensitivity as she traces the contours of race and lived experience."--ELLE.com's Must-Read Books for Fall "[A] powerful and complex novel...Rich and absorbing, especially when it highlights Smith's ever-brilliant perspective on pop culture." -- Publishers Weekly (starred), "A keen, controlled novel about dance and blackness steps onto a stage of cultural land mines...Smith is dazzling in her specificity, evoking predicaments, worldviews, and personalities with a camera-vivid precision...Moving, funny, and grave, this novel parses race and global politics with Fred Astaire's or Michael Jackson's grace."-- Kirkus Reviews (starred) "As ever, Smith plies her signature humor and sensitivity as she traces the contours of race and lived experience."--ELLE.com's Must-Read Books for Fall "[A] powerful and complex novel...Rich and absorbing, especially when it highlights Smith's ever-brilliant perspective on pop culture." -- Publishers Weekly , starred, "[A] powerful and complex novel...Rich and absorbing, especially when it highlights Smith's ever-brilliant perspective on pop culture." -- Publishers Weekly , starred, "Agile and discerning...With homage to dance as a unifying force, arresting observations...exceptionally diverse and magnetizing characters, and lashing satire, Swing Time is an acidly funny, fluently global, and head-spinning novel about the quest for meaning, exaltation, and love...This tale of friendship lost and found is going to be big."-- Booklist (starred) "The narrative moves deftly and absorbingly between its increasingly tense coming-of-age story and the adult life of the sympathetic if naïve and sometimes troubling narrator...A rich and sensitive drama highly recommended for all readers."-- Library Journal (starred) "A keen, controlled novel about dance and blackness steps onto a stage of cultural land mines...Smith is dazzling in her specificity, evoking predicaments, worldviews, and personalities with a camera-vivid precision...Moving, funny, and grave, this novel parses race and global politics with Fred Astaire's or Michael Jackson's grace."-- Kirkus Reviews (starred) "As ever, Smith plies her signature humor and sensitivity as she traces the contours of race and lived experience."--ELLE.com's Must-Read Books for Fall "[A] powerful and complex novel...Rich and absorbing, especially when it highlights Smith's ever-brilliant perspective on pop culture." -- Publishers Weekly (starred), "Every once in a while, a novel reminds us of why we still need them. Building upon the promise of White Teeth, written almost two decades ago, Zadie Smith's Swing Time boldly reimagines the classically English preoccupation with class and status for a new era--in which race, gender, and the strange distortions of contemporary celebrity meet on a global stage...No detail feels extraneous, least of all the book's resonant motif, the sankofa bird, with its backward-arching neck--suggestive less of a dancer than of an author, looking to her origins to understand the path ahead." --Megan O'Grady, Vogue "Smith delivers a page-turner that's also beautifully written (a rare combo), but best of all, she doesn't sidestep the painful stuff."-- Glamour , "November's Must Read" "A sweeping meditation on art, race, and identity that may be [Smith's] most ambitious work yet."-- Esquire "Transfixing, wide-ranging (from continents to emotions to footwork.)"-- Marie Claire "A thoughtful tale of two childhood BFFs whose shared passion for dance takes them on wildly divergent life paths."-- Cosmopolitan "Agile and discerning...With homage to dance as a unifying force, arresting observations...exceptionally diverse and magnetizing characters, and lashing satire, Swing Time is an acidly funny, fluently global, and head-spinning novel about the quest for meaning, exaltation, and love...This tale of friendship lost and found is going to be big."-- Booklist (starred) "The narrative moves deftly and absorbingly between its increasingly tense coming-of-age story and the adult life of the sympathetic if nave and sometimes troubling narrator...A rich and sensitive drama highly recommended for all readers."-- Library Journal (starred) "A keen, controlled novel about dance and blackness steps onto a stage of cultural land mines...Smith is dazzling in her specificity, evoking predicaments, worldviews, and personalities with a camera-vivid precision...Moving, funny, and grave, this novel parses race and global politics with Fred Astaire's or Michael Jackson's grace."-- Kirkus Reviews (starred) "As ever, Smith plies her signature humor and sensitivity as she traces the contours of race and lived experience."--ELLE.com's Must-Read Books for Fall "[A] powerful and complex novel...Rich and absorbing, especially when it highlights Smith's ever-brilliant perspective on pop culture." -- Publishers Weekly (starred)
