Grand Union – Zadie Smith

Zadie Smith's first collection of short stories is a dazzlingly rich, playful, and emotionally profound work that showcases her extraordinary range and mastery of the form. Interleaving eleven all-new stories with some of her best-loved published work, Grand Union moves dynamically between places, families, genres, and senses of time — from historical fiction to speculative intrigue, intimate family portraits to biting social satire.

Acclaimed for Smith's sharp wit, brilliant prose, and genre-bending range. Popular among #LiteraryTok and contemporary fiction circles for its clever social commentary, existential themes, and modern perspective on identity and relationships.

Perfect for readers of Zadie Smith's White Teeth, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's The Thing Around Your Neck, Sally Rooney's Normal People, or George Saunders's Tenth of December. Pairs beautifully with Smith's essay collection Feel Free, also available in store!
