This was an odd selection for my book club and I wonder what we're going to talk about. Individual essays may spark conversation, but there are a lot of them, so we won't be able to do the book justice. I am now officially a Zadie Smith fan, having read two of her essay collections but only one of her novels. Must read more of them. This book feels like at least two different books in one, and it is helpfully divided into sections, so the reader will see lumped together essays about art, or books, or more personal essays in the final section. In any case, Smith's skill is on display.
