Dear Fiction-l

This is a request from my daughter. She is looking for the name of a young,
black, English female author. Her first novel was published a "couple" of
years ago and caused quite a stir. Anyone?

That might be Zadie Smith. Her first novel, White Teeth, got a lot of
attention. (But her second novel, The Autograph Man, seemed to disappoint a
lot of folks.)

It might also be Alice Randall who wrote the controversial alternate to Gone With the Wind, called The Wind Done Gone. I believe this is her only novel so far.

I believe Zadie Smith is the one. Thank you, Wendy.

Alice Randall isn't British though, I think she is from Michigan or somewhere North....I remember her reading "The Wind Done Gone" and it was disapointing when she didn't have a southern accent. I think the patron must be looking for Zadie Smith.

Well, I didn't really think this was it. Also, I didn't really notice the part about the author being British. I just wanted to put it out there as a distant possibility.
