If there's one thing the characters in Jennifer Makumbi's stories know,
it's how to field an uncomfortable question. 'Let me buy you a cup of
tea...what are you doing in England?'' Do these children of yours speak
any Luganda? ''Did you know that man Idi Amin? 'But perhaps the most
difficult question of all is the one they ask themselves: 'You mean this
is England? 'Told with empathy, humour and compassion, these vibrant,
kaleidoscopic stories re-imagine the journey of Ugandans who choose to
make England their home. Weaving between Manchester and Kampala, this
dazzling collection will captivate anyone who has ever wondered what it
means to truly belong.
