Zadie Smith wins Orange prize
Sarah Crown
Tuesday June 6, 2006
Zadie Smith has held off competition from perhaps the
strongest Orange shortlist in the prize's history to
take this year's award with her third novel, On Beauty.
It was third time lucky for Smith, who went into tonight's
ceremony as the favourite, having been shortlisted for both
of her previous novels, White Teeth in 2001 and The Autograph Man
in 2003. On Beauty, a loose, contemporary reworking of
EM Forster's Howards End set amid the race, class and gender
politics of American academia, was shortlisted for the 2005
Man Booker prize, but lost out in the end to John Banville's
The Sea. The novel sees two families become embroiled in a
cultural and personal feud when the son of liberal Rembrandt
scholar Howard Belsey falls in love with the beautiful
daughter of right-wing icon - and rival Rembrandt scholar
- Howard Kipps......
