Generation Why? by Zadie Smith | The New York Review of Books

I thought I was going to hate it and then lose my admiration for Smith as a writer. But that didn’t happen. Though she draws from Jaron Lanier, who she mistakenly calls as an early innovator of the Internet (he’s really an innovator of virtual reality), she doesn’t really import his reactionary rhetoric wholesale. She’s rather fair and this piece is not really meditation on Facebook, Gen Y, or anything like that but more so of her own aging.

Worth a read.
