About this listen

Shortlisted for the Orange Prize for Fiction, 2003.
Alex-Li Tandem sells autographs. He hunts for them, collects them, sells them, and occasionally fakes them, all to give the people a little piece of Fame. But what does Alex want? Only the return of his father, the reinstatement of some kind of benevolent God figure, the end of religion, something for his headache, three different girls, infinite grace, and the rare autograph of a Forties movie actress. With fries.©2002 Zadie Smith (P)2002 Penguin Audio

A gentle story that rumbles through the telling of loss and how one escapes pain. I wasn't expecting any drama, but to love is dramatic.

A dramatic arc into adulthood.
