Title: I suggest David Lodge...
Review: If you'd like to read funny novels about academia, read David Lodge. As did many reviewers, I enjoyed White Teeth for the author's brash, audacious style (with certain reservations). This review should be rated in yawns not stars- she is an author with prodigiously interesting images but who really struggles when it comes to investing her own heart into characters and plotlines. Too clever for her own good and the reliance on Howard's End is a misstep. Clearly, Zadie Smith is the darling of critics but I trust Amazon reviewers on this one.
