«Sobre la belleza» is the novel by Zadie Smith, published by Salamandra in paperback (576 pages, in Spanish).
Howard Belsey, a middle-aged British university professor settled in New England, goes through a personal and professional crisis while his marriage to Kiki falters and his three children follow very different paths. The arrival of Monty Kipps, his academic rival, stirs up family and university life. With agile dialogue and a satirical tone, the novel reflects on love, family, and the role of intellectual baggage as a shield against the passage of time.
