Publisher's Summary

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of White Teeth by Zadie Smith, read by Lenny Henry, Sagar Arya, Pippa Bennett-Warner and Ray Panthaki.

Zadie Smith's White Teeth is a classic international best seller and an unforgettable portrait of London.

One of the most talked about fictional debuts ever, White Teeth is a funny, generous, big-hearted novel, adored by critics and readers alike. Dealing - among many other things - with friendship, love, war, three cultures and three families over three generations, one brown mouse, and the tricky way the past has of coming back and biting you on the ankle, it is a life-affirming, riotous must-listen.

Charming characters, bursting with life

I loved this audiobook, I listened this winter while x country skiing through the fields. The plot goes on tangents and flows in and out of many characters' lives, but it is always compelling. Soon you begin to see their little intricate connections, and their passions burst from every seam of this book. Witty, cunning, full of such specifically tailored observations the author must have lived many lives. The readers are all buttery smooth, and they suit the characters they play for the most part. Every so often an accent is attempted that sort of brings the listener out of the story, but this is rare. Lovely!
