Belonging in The Buddha of Suburbia by Hanif Kureishi: London and identity
The general thesis of this dissertation is that London and its suburbs are central to the protagonist’s hybrid identity and help to shape him as a marganalised human being. More precisely, I wish the main points to focus on race, class, sexuality culture and pop culture – them being all analysed while keeping London’s inherent influence on theses themes in mind, as these two elements are inextricably linked together on these matters.
