Anywhere in Northwest London stands Caldwell property real estate, relic of 70s urban planning. Five equivalent blocks, deliberately called: Hobbes, Smith, Bentham, Locke, and Russell. In the event that you was raised there, the plan was to get out and can get on, to something bigger, better. Thirty years later, ex-Caldwell kids Leah, Natalie, Felix, and Nathan have all managed to get out, with differing degrees of succes - whatever that means. Living only roads apart, they occupy separate worlds and find their way an atomized city where few wish to be their neighbor's keeper. Then, one Apr day, a stranger comes to Leah's door seeking help, disturbing the calmness, and forcing Leah out of her isolation.... From private homes to public parks, at the job and at play, in this delicate, devastating novel of encounters, the primary streets hide the trunk alleys, and taking the high road will often lead to a inactive end. Zadie Smith's NW brilliantly depicts the present day urban zone - familiar to city dwellers everywhere - in a tragicomic novel as mercurial as the city itself.
