The harsh realities of refugee life in the UK are emotionally recounted in this collection of short stories, memoirs, and poems, published in association with the British Council. The writers' relationship to their adopted home is complex and ambiguous, with gratitude and appreciation for the rich culture and democratic tradition of Britain mixed with the pain caused by racism, arrogance, and ignorance.
