This book is amazing. It deals with the difficult and diverse issues concerning growing up as an immigrant in the UK. It deals with themes of sexuality masculinity gender and childhood alongside race culture and religion. And includes essays from Chinese backgrounds, mixed race backgrounds and Indian backgrounds to name only a small few. It's teeming with heart, sass and perspective and made me see the way my society works in a whole new light. Breathtaking and so important, this collection of essays is a must read. And for me a must re-read! An effortless 5 stars for me!
