\'As well as offering a new guide to living in a wild, messy and unfair world, Smith provides a reminder that we can use this crisis to imagine a better one\' Evening Standard

\nFrom the critically acclaimed author of Feel Free, Swing Time, White Teeth and many more
\n\'There will be many books written about the year 2020: historical, analytic, political and comprehensive accounts. This is not any of those - the year isn\'t half-way done. What I\'ve tried to do is organize some of the feelings and thoughts that events, so far, have provoked in me, in those scraps of time the year itself has allowed. These are above all personal essays: small by definition, short by necessity.\'
\nCrafted with the sharp intelligence, wit and style that have won Zadie Smith millions of fans, and suffused with a profound intimacy and tenderness in response to these unprecedented times, Intimations is a vital work of art, a gesture of connection and an act of love - an essential book in extraordinary times.
