This book examines the value of 'landscape and memory' for postcolonial migrants living in Britain. Reflecting on the cultural landscapes of British Asian women, it shows new spaces of memory to be as politically meaningful as the more formal spaces of memorialization. The book presents race memory as critical to English heritage and postcolonial politics and makes an important contribution to the writings on race and landscape
