An Englishman and a Bangladeshi walk into a bar. Again and again. Old habits die hard, and these two friends, bound together by WWII, can’t seem to move on. While several years have past, they now have wives and children, neighbors and in-laws - all with opinions of their own. Everyone is on the brink of disaster, including the city of London. But at least they have the bar, their usual orders, and the “incident” that keeps them together. White Teeth [2000] by Zadie Smith is as funny as it is moving.
Life goes on for two wartime friends whether they like it or not
