Empireland
Sathnam Sanghera's book unveils the British Empire's lasting impact on modern Britain, affecting the NHS, racism, Brexit, and the Covid response. Sanghera's clear-eyed prose and acerbic wit expose the empire's profound influence, often overlooked in our national narrative. Amid identity debates, the book urges a closer examination of this contradiction, stressing that acknowledging our imperial past is essential for defining our present identity in a divided Britain.
