Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. To the Manor Born is a vivid memoir charting the life of the British-born son of East African Indian immigrants growing up in multicultural, working-class South London. Blending humour, grit, music, and social commentary, Raj recounts a childhood shaped by racism, resilience, and the vibrant… communities of Streatham. From 1970s power cuts and playground tensions to the rise of hip-hop, DJ culture, and the rave era, music becomes his lifeline and identity. He navigates street fights, loyalty, and wild adventures, forming sound system crews and spinning records across London while balancing risk and ambition. Along the way, he survives chaos, travels abroad, falls in love, and eventually steps into adulthood as a husband, father, and corporate professional. Reflecting on race, politics, family, and belonging, Raj looks back with honesty and humour. To the Manor Born is a coming-of-age story, a love letter to multicultural London, and a testament to resilience, rhythm, and survival. This item is printed on demand.
