Sommario/riassunto |
|
This study examines the cultural experience of Anglo-Indians, those of mixed British and Indian ancestry who settled in Britain following India's independence. Using archival research, ethnography, and literary and cultural analyses, Almeida investigates the initial migration of Anglo-Indians and their decades-long experience of assimilation. |
