«Tiempos de swing» is the contemporary novel by Zadie Smith, published by Ediciones Salamandra in paperback (432 pages, in Spanish).
Two girls from mixed-race couples grow up in a multicultural London neighbourhood with the same dream: to be dancers. Class and race differences, along with their family environments, eventually separate them over the years. The narrator, now an adult, moves between London, New York and West Africa while trying to reconcile her present with that friendship.
The original title is Swing Time. The translation is by Eugenia Vázquez Nacarino. The work belongs to the Salamandra Narrativa collection. The work was a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award.
For readers of contemporary fiction aged 16 and over, with an interest in friendship, identity and social inequality.
