Will Smith is a prince, and not just because he first became famous for his humorous rap music and his TV sitcom under the name "Fresh Prince." Although this African American is now a mega-star of the big screen, he's still a thoroughly decent person.
An Introduction to Middle English by Simon Horobin and Jeremy Smith
Book Description

London, 1969 – and the headstrong and beautiful Isabella Courtney dazzles all.
Yet the years that follow will test Isabella to the extreme of her endurance.
They will be years of hardship and bitter pain, hidden behind the masks of affluence and success. It will be a time in which brother is pitted against brother, as they are drawn into the lair of the golden fox.
Golden Fox irresistibly sweeps the reader through the heart of London society, the grandeur of Europe and the searing heat of a divided Africa.
Once again, Wilbur Smith combines his unique talents for electric story-telling, meticulous research and compassion for places and their people in a novel of adventure, romantic obsession, deceit and desire, in a world where betrayal demands the ultimate sacrifice...
This is the fourth volume in the Courtney series, Second Sequence
Zadie Smith's White Teeth is a delightfully cacophonous tale that spans 25 years of two families' assimilation in North London. The Joneses and the Iqbals are an unlikely a pairing of families, but their intertwined destinies distill the British Empire's history and hopes into a dazzling multiethnic melange that is a pure joy to read. Smith proves herself to be a master at drawing fully-realized, vibrant characters, and she demonstrates an extraordinary ear for dialogue. It is a novel full of humor and empathy that is as inspiring as it is enjoyable. "White Teeth"is a remarkable piece of postcolonial literature.
