Reviews
"It feels fitting...that [Smith's] first short-story collection is as eclectic as it is...Taken all together, the book does feel like a kind of grand union: the lucky synthesis of everything swirling inside Smith's big, beautiful brain." -- Leah Greenblatt, Entertainment Weekly "These masterful tales impress, engage and occasion¬ally infuriate as Smith brings her dazzling wit and acute sensitivity to bear... All genres are Smith's to play with." -- BookPage (starred review) "A gorgeous mix of genres and perspectives." -- New York Post , The Fall Books Everyone is Talking About "All provocative, incisive, and revealing Smith's prodigious talent, which she refuses to limit to any singular genre or subject, instead choosing to range from dystopia to realism, offering sly commentary on the lives we live today, and what might be in store for our futures." -- NYLON , The 34 Books You'll Want To Read This Fall " Grand Union applies [Smith's] sharp skills of observation and her playful wit...The virtuoso Smith doesn't stick to one genre. Dystopia and horror sit adjacent to historical fiction in this energetic collection. Her fans will appreciate her rigorous engagement with identity, class, family and place."-- New York Observer , The Must-Read New Books of Fall "Nineteen erudite stories wheel through a constellation of topics, tones, and fonts to dizzying literary effect...Wit marbles Smith's fiction...Several of Smith's stories are on their ways to becoming classics." -- Kirkus (starred review) "Smart and bewitching...The modern world is refracted in ways that are both playful and rigorous, formally experimental and socially aware...Smith exercises her range without losing her wry, slightly cynical humor. Readers of all tastes will find something memorable in this collection." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review), "[The stories] ricochet between, among other settings, 1950s London and modern-day Manhattan. But each demonstrates that Smith continues to be among the most observant voices working today." -- Elle "It feels fitting...that [Smith's] first short-story collection is as eclectic as it is...Taken all together, the book does feel like a kind of grand union: the lucky synthesis of everything swirling inside Smith's big, beautiful brain." -- Leah Greenblatt, Entertainment Weekly "These masterful tales impress, engage and occasion¬ally infuriate as Smith brings her dazzling wit and acute sensitivity to bear... All genres are Smith's to play with." -- BookPage (starred review) "Fury, heartbreak, and drollery collide in masterfully crafted prose that ranges in effect from the exquisitely tragic lyricism of Katherine Mansfield to the precisely calibrated acid bath of Jamaica Kincaid as Smith demonstrates her unique prowess for elegant disquiet." -- Booklist (starred review) "A gorgeous mix of genres and perspectives." -- New York Post , The Fall Books Everyone is Talking About "All provocative, incisive, and revealing Smith's prodigious talent, which she refuses to limit to any singular genre or subject, instead choosing to range from dystopia to realism, offering sly commentary on the lives we live today, and what might be in store for our futures." -- NYLON , The 34 Books You'll Want To Read This Fall " Grand Union applies [Smith's] sharp skills of observation and her playful wit...The virtuoso Smith doesn't stick to one genre.

Readers of all tastes will find something memorable in this collection." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review), "[Smith's] uncanny ability to craft deliciously realized characters is on full display here (as is her dark sense of humor and biting take on modern politics). There's a description of a lazy river with an all-inclusive resort that can only be described as a masterpiece and a tale about an acclaimed author visiting the West Village in the midst of the Brett Kavanaugh SCOTUS hearings, to name a few." -- Entertainment Weekly , Fall Books Preview "A gorgeous mix of genres and perspectives." -- New York Post , The Fall Books Everyone is Talking About "All provocative, incisive, and revealing Smith's prodigious talent, which she refuses to limit to any singular genre or subject, instead choosing to range from dystopia to realism, offering sly commentary on the lives we live today, and what might be in store for our futures." -- NYLON , The 34 Books You'll Want To Read This Fall " Grand Union applies [Smith's] sharp skills of observation and her playful wit...The virtuoso Smith doesn't stick to one genre.

Synopsis
Smith has established herself as one of the most iconic, critically respected, and popular writers of her generation. In her first short story collection, she combines her power of observation and her inimitable voice to mine the fraught and complex experience of life in the modern world., Longlisted for the Carnegie Medal! A dazzling collection of short fiction Zadie Smith has established herself as one of the most iconic, critically respected, and popular writers of her generation. In her first short story collection, she combines her power of observation and her inimitable voice to mine the fraught and complex experience of life in the modern world. Interleaving eleven completely new and unpublished stories with some of her best-loved pieces from The New Yorker and elsewhere, Smith presents a dizzyingly rich and varied collection of fiction. Moving exhilaratingly across genres and perspectives, from the historic to the vividly current to the slyly dystopian, Grand Union is a sharply alert and prescient collection about time and place, identity and rebirth, the persistent legacies that haunt our present selves and the uncanny futures that rush up to meet us. Nothing is off limits, and everything--when captured by Smith's brilliant gaze--feels fresh and relevant. Perfectly paced and utterly original, Grand Union highlights the wonders Zadie Smith can do., Longlisted for the Carnegie Medal A dazzling collection of short fiction Zadie Smith has established herself as one of the most iconic, critically respected, and popular writers of her generation.
