Description - London was Full of Rooms by Tully Barnett
London may have many rooms, but is there space for the travelling colonial? This collection of essays, memoirs and poems was initially inspired by the Malaysian writer Lee Kok Lian's adamantly titled London Does Not Belong To Me. Visitors to London from the old colonies have long recorded their impressions, contributing to the discussion about the beguiling attractions of the world's first great metropolis.
Did they find room for themselves in London? Did they think London belonged to them? Did they find they belonged to London? London Was Full Of Rooms provides a diverse range of responses to these postcolonial questions.
