Product Information

Winner of the 2018 National Book Critics Circle Award for Criticism A New York Times Notable Book From Zadie Smith, one of the most beloved authors of her generation, a new collection of essays Since she burst spectacularly into view with her debut novel almost two decades ago, Zadie Smith has established herself not just as one of the world's preeminent fiction writers, but also a brilliant and singular essayist. She contributes regularly to The New Yorker and the New York Review of Books on a range of subjects, and each piece of hers is a literary event in its own right. Arranged into five sections--In the World, In the Audience, In the Gallery, On the Bookshelf, and Feel Free--this new collection poses questions we immediately recognize. What is The Social Network--and Facebook itself--really about? "It's a cruel portrait of us: 500 million sentient people entrapped in the recent careless thoughts of a Harvard sophomore." Why do we love libraries? "Well-run libraries are filled with people because what a good library offers cannot be easily found elsewhere: an indoor public space in which you do not have to buy anything in order to stay." What will we tell our granddaughters about our collective failure to address global warming? "So I might say to her, look: the thing you have to appreciate is that we'd just been through a century of relativism and deconstruction, in which we were informed that most of our fondest-held principles were either uncertain or simple wishful thinking, and in many areas of our lives we had already been asked to accept that nothing is essential and everything changes--and this had taken the fight out of us somewhat." Gathering in one place for the first time previously unpublished work, as well as already classic essays, such as, "Joy," and, "Find Your Beach," Feel Free offers a survey of important recent events in culture and politics, as well as Smith's own life. Equally at home in the world of good books and bad politics, Brooklyn-born rappers and the work of Swiss novelists, she is by turns wry, heartfelt, indignant, and incisive--and never any less than perfect company. This is literary journalism at its zenith. Zadie Smith's new book, Grand Union , is on sale 10/8/2019.

Reviews
"If only all such thoughts were so cogent and unfailingly humane. The author is honest, often impassioned, always sober...Smith's observations are timeless." -- Kirkus , (starred review) "Lest you forget that Zadie Smith's output encompasses several masterful careers, please allow Feel Free , her new collection of essays, to remind you...Incisive and often wry...these pieces are as relevant as can be. They are reminders of how much else there is to ponder in this world, how much else is worth our time, and how lucky we are to have Smith as our guide." -- Vanity Fair "A generous volume that shares the breadth and depth of this thoughtful writer's curiosity...Smith is not only a penetrating and candid writer, she is also embracing. Reading these pieces can feel like a pleasant dinner conversation with a smart, open-minded friend." -- BookPage "In glowing and remarkable prose, Zadie Smith argues out the world we live in. Her approach is fierce and lucid, nuanced and definitive, witty and deeply serious, joyful and hopeful and honest. This book is a tonic that will help the reader reengage with life." -- Andrew Solomon, author of Far From the Tree and The Noonday Demon, "If only all such thoughts were so cogent and unfailingly humane. The author is honest, often impassioned, always sober...Smith's observations are timeless." -- Kirkus , (starred review) "In glowing and remarkable prose, Zadie Smith argues out the world we live in. Her approach is fierce and lucid, nuanced and definitive, witty and deeply serious, joyful and hopeful and honest. This book is a tonic that will help the reader reengage with life." -- Andrew Solomon, author of Far From the Tree and The Noonday Demon, "If only all such thoughts were so cogent and unfailingly humane. The author is honest, often impassioned, always sober...Smith's observations are timeless." -- Kirkus , (starred review), "Refreshingly insightful on any number of topics, from Martin Buber to Justin Bieber...Reviewing a book by her countryman Geoff Dyer, [Smith] writes that she is most struck by 'his tone. Its simplicity, its classlessness, its accessibility and yet its erudition--the combination is a trick few British writers ever pull off.' Without question, Smith is one of them." -- TIME Magazine "In the best of these pieces...Smith presses down hard as a cultural critic, and the rewards are outsize." -- Dwight Garner, The New York Times "Eclectic in her tastes, centrifugal in her style, Smith as an essayist loves to stretch her frame. Moving from wit towards wisdom, she explores the rolling hinterland behind the fads and trends...In her case, the category of 'classical English essayist'--in the vein of Hazlitt and Orwell, Virginia Woolf and Angela Carter--may well look as quaint to the digital natives she strives to understand as that of, say, 'leading Byzantine silversmith. No matter. Beyond doubt, she has joined their company." -- Financial Times "A delicious hodge podge of ideas that show Smith's breadth of interest and thoughtfulness. It's stretching: a yoga class for the mind." -- The Times (UK) "Engrossing...to end with a question from the reviewer, should you read this brilliant book? Answer--absolutely!" -- The Independent (UK) "If only all such thoughts were so cogent and unfailingly humane. The author is honest, often impassioned, always sober...Smith's observations are timeless." -- Kirkus , (starred review) "Lest you forget that Zadie Smith's output encompasses several masterful careers, please allow Feel Free , her new collection of essays, to remind you...Incisive and often wry...these pieces are as relevant as can be. They are reminders of how much else there is to ponder in this world, how much else is worth our time, and how lucky we are to have Smith as our guide." -- Vanity Fair "A generous volume that shares the breadth and depth of this thoughtful writer's curiosity...Smith is not only a penetrating and candid writer, she is also embracing.
