About this book

Afua Hirsch examines British identity through the experience of growing up mixed-race and repeatedly having her sense of belonging questioned. Her account connects personal memories with Britain's imperial history and present racial divisions. An attempt to find a home in Senegal exposes how deeply British she feels, complicating the identity she hoped to claim.
