A Home from Home: from Immigrant Boy to English Man |
Sri Lankan Journalist and Broadcaster George Alagiah spent his early years in Ghana. Age 11 he was sent to Boarding School in England; where (with no family support system) he remained even during the holidays. Partly autobiography - he uses the culture shock of finding himself in an alien environment to explore issues such as identity and immigration. Fascinating, absorbing and thought provoking on many levels.
