Summary, etc "When the eleven-year-old George Alagiah was dropped off at a south coast boarding school back in 1967 he was confronted with an extreme version of the very private struggle faced by all immigrants - the battle to leave the past behind and fit into a new culture. A Home from Home is the story of Alagiah's journey from Asian boy to English man; from the homesick, diffident child who suppressed his tears to the household name he is today." "But, above all Home from Home is a portrayal of the immigrant experience. From a dawn visit to Billingsgate fish market with Helen, who came to Britain from St. Lucia in 1959, to a jasmine-scented Sri Lankan wedding ceremony in north London, Alagiah has brought colour and life to a subject that is all too often reduced to screaming tabloid headlines. And in discovering where he feels most at home, Alagiah sheds light on the increasingly controversial question of British identity."--BOOK JACKET.
