*LONGLISTED FOR THE 2024 HWA NON-FICTION CROWN AWARD* 'Immensely readable, emotional and important' KAVITA PURI 'A poignant exploration of empire, community and family' AANCHAL MALHOTRA 'Full of the sights, smells and tastes of what most remember as a lost utopia' SPECTATOR Uganda, August 1972. President Idi Amin makes a shocking pronouncement: the country's South Asian population is being expelled. They have ninety days to leave. After packing scant possessions and countless memories, 50,000 people stepped into the unknown, with more than 28,000 of them arriving in the UK in airlifts to begin new lives here. But their incredible stories have, until know, remained hidden. More than fifty years on, The Exiled draws on first-hand interviews and testimonies, including from the author's family, to reveal a time of painful alienation and incredible courage. Journeying across continents and decades, this sweeping work of reportage illuminates an essential chapter in post-colonial history - and its continued impact today.
