England Is Mine by Nicolas Padamsee

England Is Mine by Nicolas Padamsee is a bold and thought-provoking novel that explores belonging, identity, and political inheritance in modern Britain. Blending fiction and philosophy, it follows a British Indian protagonist navigating love, activism, and alienation in a society grappling with its post-imperial soul.

This is a sharp, literary exploration of nationalism, race, and resistance, told through an intimate and lyrical voice that challenges readers to confront what it means to call a country “home.”
