"Hanwell in Hell" by Zadie Smith
"Hanwell in Hell" met the lofty expectations I hold whenever I read Zadie Smith.
Clive Black narrates to Hanwell's daughter the sole encounter he had with her father.
Zadie Smith is typically rich here and is not fearful of holding back, which is something I have always admired in her writing. Her specific details make the locale, characters and atmosphere spring to life in a superbly drawn story.
