Zadie Smith?
When I used to work in a library that was the one book that would go out nearly every week, and I could never fit the blastest thing on the shelf - the S section was always the busiest for some reason. Perhaps there's more authors with surnames beginning with S ...?
yep that's her. I quite like her also read the autograph by her quite a quirky writer I think :)
hmmm maybe or cos it's in the middle, peeps sort of go there first... dunno

I loved this one. Did you know that he recently published a third book called Merde Happens? I haven't got around to reading it yet though. |

The funniest stereotypes are to be found in another book called "Talk to the Snail" by the same author. Let me find my book and I'll post some of the best ones. |

I was going to try some 'classics', because I hated them at school and thought it might be better to read them for pleasure. The only one I liked at school was Wuthering Heights. Anyone got any 'classic' recommendations?
