This book has been sitting on our bookshelves for years. It has already travelled from Eindhoven to Elst (near Nijmegen) in the Netherlands, to Hamburg in Germany, then to Wijchen (also near Nijmegen) in the Netherlands. Since I joined BookCrossing our shelves, which were already full, have started to overflow, so it's time to let go of some books. I will be reading / releasing this book for a couple of BookCrossing challenges:
1. The Ultimate Challenge 2009. Read, release & themed reading.
2. Reduce Mount TBR Challenge 2009 - challenge yourself to read a certain number of books on the To Be Read shelf, or which were in your possession before January 1st 2009: rules and extra themes. My goal is to read 46.
3. Personal Read-My-Way-Round-the-World Challenge (see how far I've got on my profile map)
4. Personal Time Travel Challenge (reading books set in different historical periods)
5. 2009 Pages to Read Challenge - My goal is 25000 pages.

This remarkable book tells of the past, of present adaptation, of old and new attitudes to love and marriage, of drastic changes imposed on family relationships and friendships for Asian women in Britain. Overlying and intruding into their daily lives are experiences of racism in housing and education, on the streets and at the hads of the law, in immigration policy and at work. In describing these attitudes and struggles, 'Finding a Voice' also tells of the increasing militancy and organisation of these new members of the British working class. Amrit Wilson received the Martin Luther King Memorial Prize in 1978 for this moving and important work.
