About the Book

Un relato fresco y divertido de la Inglaterra moderna a través de la historia ferozmente ingeniosa de los inmigrantes en Inglaterra durante un período de cuarenta años.

Nominada por los estadounidenses como una de las 100 mejores novelas en la serie de PBS The Great American Read.

Situado en un barrio londinense de inmigrantes, el inmenso fresco humano que dibuja la autora tiene como epicentro las familias de Archie Jones y Samad Iqbal, dos ex combatientes de la Segunda Guerra Mundial que vuelven a encontrarse después de treinta años sin verse. Archie está casado con una jamaicana exuberante y Samad con Alsana, bengalí como él, y con las ideas muy claras. Pero lo más preocupante no es estar casados con mujeres jóvenes de carácter endemoniado, ni la falta de dinero, ni las secuelas de la guerra; no, la prueba más dura es la relación con sus hijos, que a la hora de llevar a cabo los proyectos fracasados de sus padres se rebelan: se rebelan contra el racismo británico, contra su propia clase social, incluso contra su barrio, sus orígenes, y su historia. Así, cada uno a su manera, son la prueba viviente de lo difícil que resulta escapar de un destino trazado de antemano.

Sin duda uno de los autores jóvenes más destacados de la literatura anglosajona de los últimos años, la británica Zadie Smith asombró a la crítica y al público lector cuando, con apenas veintidós años, reveló en esta excepcional primera novela una inaudita capacidad para registrar las grandezas y miserias humanas con un ojo observador y distante, pleno de humor y sabia ironía. Galardonada con los premios Whitbread y Guardian, además de quedar finalista en todos los demás concursos literarios importantes de Gran Bretaña, Dientes blancos fue portada del New York Times y Le Monde y, por añadidura, ocupó los primeros puestos en las listas de libros más vendidos en ambas orillas del Atlántico.

La crítca ha dicho...
«Un debut que asombra por su consistencia, divertido y serio a la vez; la voz tiene auténtico timbre literario. Dientes blancos me encantó y me impresionó. Tiene garra.» - Salman Rushdie

«Un prosa ácida, lujuriosa, eléctrica. Zadie Smith es una Dickens de la era postcolonial.» -L'Express

«Un nuevo y gran talento. Un optimismo mordaz e irreverente sin ser frívolo, comprometido y entretenido a la vez.» -The Guardian

«Smith mantiene el tipo con una confianza y energía desbordantes, exentas de falsedad. Al acabar el día, hay motivos para alegrarse, y este elocuente y divertido libro es uno de ellos.» -The New York Times Book Review

ENGLISH EDITION

Zadie Smith's dazzling debut caught critics grasping for comparisons and deciding on everyone from Charles Dickens to Salman Rushdie to John Irving and Martin Amis. But the truth is that Zadie Smith's voice is remarkably, fluently, and altogether wonderfully her own.

Nominated as one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read

At the center of this invigorating novel are two unlikely friends, Archie Jones and Samad Iqbal. Hapless veterans of World War II, Archie and Samad and their families become agents of England's irrevocable transformation. A second marriage to Clara Bowden, a beautiful, albeit tooth-challenged, Jamaican half his age, quite literally gives Archie a second lease on life, and produces Irie, a knowing child whose personality doesn't quite match her name (Jamaican for "no problem"). Samad's late-in-life arranged marriage (he had to wait for his bride to be born), produces twin sons whose separate paths confound Iqbal's every effort to direct them, and a renewed, if selective, submission to his Islamic faith. Set against London' s racial and cultural tapestry, venturing across the former empire and into the past as it barrels toward the future, White Teeth revels in the ecstatic hodgepodge of modern life, flirting with disaster, confounding expectations, and embracing the comedy of daily existence.
