Product description

Review

"This is a painful, wise and thoughtful book by a fine writer....Alibhai-Brown is totally opposed to injustice and wedded to the ideal of multicultural identity, yet her argument is complex."
-"The Independent (London)
"Yasmin Alibhai-Brown is the leading female commentator in the British media...She is a first, highly articulate draft of a new kind of Briton."
-"The Observer (London)
"A significant contribution to the conversation about the "new" Britain.."
-"Times Literary Supplement

From the Back Cover

There is a gap between the Britain that most people imagine and the Britain that really is. Myth: The Royal Family, fish and chips, Shakespeare. Reality: multicultural families, curry, Zadie Smith. The New Britain is a multicultural society, where there are more biracial couples than in any other western nation, and where Islam is the fastest-growing religion. Yasmin Alibhai-Brown investigates this new multiculturalism in post-colonial Britain. Drawing on her own experiences, wide research, and over one hundred interviews, Alibhai-Brown offers a fresh look at such topics as racism, imperialism, immigration, and identity politics. Imagining the New Britain offers a startling portrait of the vastly changing face of British citizenship and identity.
