Dos niñas son obligadas a compartir habitación en un centro de acogida. Una blanca y otra negra. Ambas se rechazan de inmediato, pero poco a poco se dan cuenta de que tienen en común más de lo que esperaban. «La sal y la pimienta», como las empiezan a llamar los demás, se vuelven inseparables, y con el paso del tiempo se van encontrando en distintos lugares: un restaurante, un supermercado, una manifestación, siempre en lados opuestos de los conflictos sociales.

Zadie Smith ormai si è affermata come una delle scrittrici più iconiche, rispettate dalla critica e popolari della sua generazione. E oggi, a vent'anni dal memorabile esordio di "Denti bianchi", ci offre il suo primo libro di racconti, nel quale il suo potere di osservazione e la sua voce inimitabile si fondono per restituirci l'esperienza complessa, terribilmente complessa, della vita nella contemporaneità.

Zadie Smith ha demostrado ser una ensayista brillante y singular, haciendo que cada texto suyo sea un acontecimiento literario por derecho propio. Con total libertad, que recopila algunos de los más celebrados, abarca el amplísimo rango de intereses de Smith: desde todas las facetas de la cultura y la libertad artística hasta los temas más acuciantes de la política y la actualidad, siempre desde una perspectiva original y radicalmente personal.

Protagonisti di questo romanzo sono due grandi amici, l'inglese Archie e il bengalese Samad. In una Londra dove l'estremismo è all'ordine del giorno, i due danno vita a una strana quanto improbabile coppia: Archie ha sempre seguito la corrente, Samad, invece, è un musulmano convinto, che mal sopporta la decadenza della società occidentale. Ad aggravare la già inquieta atmosfera arrivano i Chalfen, agiati intellettuali inglesi carichi di tutti i tic e le illusioni della Generazione dei Fiori. E l'incontro-scontro fra le diverse culture produrrà effetti tragicomici non meno che devastanti.

Los protagonistas de la historia, Leah, Natalie, Felix y Nathan, crecieron entre edificios de protección oficial y, ahora en la treintena, la ambición y el azar los han llevado a alcanzar posiciones sociales muy distintas. Los encuentros y desencuentros entre ellos ponen de manifiesto sus diferencias raciales, la validez del ascenso social, su actitud ante cuestiones de fondo como la maternidad, la amistad, la lealtad.

A través de diversas perspectivas, desde lo histórico y lo actual hasta la más absoluta distopía, Grand Union es una reflexión estimulante y profética sobre el tiempo y el espacio, la identidad y el renacimiento, los legados que acechan nuestro presente y los posibles futuros que amenazan con llegar.

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.
