Intimations is a 2020 collection of essays by writer Zadie Smith. Smith began writing the book around the time the COVID-19 pandemic began in the United States, and completed it soon after the murder of George Floyd.[1]

The essays discuss topics including creative writing, the pandemic, and the murder of George Floyd.[2]

Reception

[edit | edit source]

Constance Grady, writing for Vox, referred to Smith's essays about current events as occasionally "facile" and that the collection was best when addressing the nature and utility of writing.[3]
