I had long since realised that if there was greatness in Britain, then it lay in its everyday citizens, and not in its institutions. Britain was not great because of its papers and politicians who relentlessly denigrated us, it was great in spite of them. (...) But that wasn't a spirit that I felt my country was doing nearly enough to nurture.
This was such a great collection, and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in immigrant stories of Britain. Some of the articles in this are going to stay with me for a very, very long time.

but others are annoying (looking at you nish kumar)

A fascinating book. Told by ethnic writers who feel strangers in the land of their births and unequally at unease in the lands of their ancestors. A terrific read
