Philosophy of Zadie Smith

(2000)

White teeth.

Good, or bad actually.

Oh man?

What?

The soul of the book is bad boyz.

What else?

I think she does a lot with syntax.

Oh, syn-tax, what an original concept, maybe it's about bad boyz.

I think it's a tech matter.

Oh, that's original. Maybe the bad boyz made a big move.

It's like that, only smaller in scale.

Like it fits in her pocketbook.

I suppose it would Weill in there.

Silly cops.

What did it say?

Bad boyz.

She can play, that's what's on her mind.

Why did she say tech?

Goodie two shoes.

What?

The soul of the book is bad boyz.

She thought she wrote the bible.

What is this, an action movie?

Move over, Al Gore.

What's her principle?

Derissiveness.

You got that right.

How did she do that?

She's an African-American [woman] and she wrote a book.

She's got soul, somebody says.

That's her kind of treatment.

The pages are bleeding.

Where's her apartment, I didn't know this was a magic car?

When is she going to atone? Is she def?

What?

This is the bad boyz, we've just done something bad.

Why doesn't she say that?

Because she's the invisible narrator.

Invisible? Invincible more like it. What is her favorite brand of shampoo?

None of your business.

See what I mean?

Who are you?

Nobody.

Someone says.

Someone with soul.

...

CRITIQUE: People get a feeling like, maybe Zadie Smith is the greatest genius, but I don't know what her ideas are. Some philosophers are like, she’s pretty smart, she discovered something about men.
