from Imaginary Homelands

In the excerpt from Imaginary Homelands, writer Salman Rushdie describes going back to visit a house were he grew up and talks about how it feels to belong to two cultures. When you are reading an article or a story, you can gain a deeper understanding of what you are reading by connecting the experiences being described to your own life. What is it like to move away from one place? What does it feel like to belong to two different places? Write a paragraph responding to one of these two questions.
