Zadie Smith’s debut novel, White Teeth, is a sprawling, multi-generational narrative that explores the complex intersections of history, migration, and cultural identity in late twentieth-century London. Through the intertwined lives of the Jones and Iqbal families, the text examines the lingering effects of colonial legacies on contemporary British society. Smith employs a sharp, energetic prose style to navigate themes of religion, science, and the search for belonging within an increasingly diverse urban landscape.
