'This illuminating, vivid volume is a fitting tribute to the experiences of migration, struggle and celebration that shaped those communities born out of the system of Caribbean indenture' -- Hanif Kureishi, author of 'The Buddha of Suburbia' (Faber & Faber, 2009) 'Through moving and insightful stories and testimonies, the legacies of indenture are powerfully inscribed' -- Hannah Lowe, author of 'Long Time No See' (Periscope, 2015) 'This kaleidoscopic survey illuminates corners of modern Britain that have been overlooked. Filed with vivid stories about the Chinese and Indian contribution to Caribbean culture, it is also a vibrant history of immigration to the UK: a colourful work in every sense' -- Sibghat Kadri QC 'I cried when I read this beautifully furious book on the life, loves and heroic struggles of my brave ancestors, the unfree indentured Indian and Chinese men and women who have been consciously and cruelly written out of British and Caribbean history' -- Heidi Safia Mirza, Professor of Race, Faith and Culture at Goldsmith College, University of London 'Indentured labour was a unique form of labour invented and perfected by the British. This book analyses its history, development and human consequences with remarkable insight and points to its dark moral underside' -- Bhikhu Parekh, political theorist, academic and member of the House of Lords
