Zadie Smith’s dazzlingly energetic and deeply human story about friendship, music and true identity, how they shape us and how we can survive them
Zadie Smith delivers an unforgettable tale about who we are and what we really want to be, in this wry and thoughtful rite-of-passage novel
The Autograph Man introduces the reader to one Alex-Li Tandem: a twenty-something Chinese-Jewish autograph dealer turned on by sex, drugs and organised religion. From London to New York, love to death, fathers to sons, Alex tries to discover how a piece of paper can bring him closer to his heart’s desire. Through his journey, Zadie Smith exposes our misconceptions about our idols – and about ourselves.
