The book delves into how nostalgia shapes both individual and collective identities among diasporic South-Asians in the UK and US. It posits that, within a postcolonial framework, the emotions tied to nostalgia can serve as a powerful form of resistance, challenging dominant narratives and fostering a sense of belonging. Through this exploration, it highlights the transformative potential of nostalgic experiences in navigating cultural identity and heritage.
