In her new novel, Zadie Smith tells the story of two university professors who are enemies. Belsey and Kipse, whose families turn out to be closely related to each other. This is a sitcom set in an academic cross-cultural space, as bright as Smith's first novel, White Teeth. In the Belsey house, in Boston, they profess the ideas of the equality of all people, the undeniable superiority of democracy, all the fashionable theories about art, and the idea of wealth is neglected and despise politics. In the Kips house they talk about realpolitik, about money, about economics, they declare equality a myth, and multiculturalism a fashionable fiction. This confrontation leads to many tragicomic events... This is a novel about love, about the understanding of what beauty is. In 2006, Zadie Smith received the Orange Broadband Prize for Fiction, one of the most prestigious awards in the English-speaking world, for her novel On Beauty.
