Through Zora, Smith now pokes fun at this fault. The girl's cringeworthy attempts to achieve bohemian-chic status are sensitively chronicled, and by the end of the tale - but not before one final, angst-ridden blowout - a wiser, smarter and much cooler young woman has emerged. Smith has grown up, too. On Beauty, short-listed last week for the Man Booker Prize, is striking for the maturity...
