Rice & Peas and Fish & Chips
7th October, 2021
Rice & Peas and Fish & Chips is a deeply personal and moving memoir exploring what it means to grow up between worlds. From Pauline’s childhood as the daughter of Windrush parents to her experiences navigating British schools, the legal profession, and social identity, the book blends humour, sharp observation, and emotional honesty.
It is a story about belonging, resilience, and the cultural richness of Caribbean-British heritage — and a powerful reflection on race, nationalism, and connection.
Ideal for the website: Position as an essential read for those interested in British social history, multicultural identity, and the lived reality of the Windrush generation’s children.
