About the time Pilate became governor of Judea in 26 AD, the Roman emperor Tiberius went into semi-retirement and Sejanus, commander of the Praetorian Guard, assumed a lot of the emperor’s responsibilities.

Yet, it was this novel about the northwest corner of London, specifically the neighborhoods of Kilburn and Willesden, that I used as the capstone of my ENGL 1102 course, “The Global Novel in English,” to drive home the argument I had made all semester: British literature is inherently global, and there is no way to understand the novel or, indeed, England/Britain/the United Kingdom itself, without understanding the transnational implications of “English” literature. A novel deeply-rooted in a specific London neighborhood, one so concerned with locality that one of the main characters is “as faithful in her allegiance to this two-mile square of the city as other people are to their families, or their countries” (6), Zadie Smith’s NW (2012) may not seem an intuitive choice for a reflection on teaching global literature. ![]() |
