Archie Jones and Samad Iqbal, two unexpected buddies, are at the heart of this energizing book. Archie, Samad, and their families, despondent World War II veterans, become into agents of England's unstoppable change. Archie is essentially given a second chance at life when he marries Clara Bowden, a beautiful but dentally challenged Jamaican half his age. Together, they have a kid named Irie, whose demeanor defies her name, which is Jamaican meaning "no problem." Samad's late-life planned marriage (he had to wait for the birth of his wife) results in twin kids who defy Iqbal's attempts to guide them in different directions and a renewed, if somewhat selective, adherence to his Islamic religion. Placing itself against the racial and cultural fabric of London, White Teeth explores the past, the old empire, and the present while speeding into the future. It revels in the exuberant mishmash of contemporary life, toying with catastrophe, defying expectations, and enjoying the humor of day-to-day living.
