Megjegyzések:	The cultural identity of immigrants has been a key issue in English literature since decolonization. Significant authors such as VS Naipaul, Salman Rusdie and Ravinder Randhawa have portrayed "otherness" and the confusion of cultural identity of first and second generation immigrants in Great Britain while others have written about hybridity and a new way of being British from an insider's point of view. For a new generation of British Asians and British Asian writers the main question is not whether Great Britain is their home or not but how their identity is represented and symbolised by the location they call their home. This paper discusses the relationship between location and cultural identity through the analysis of two contemporary British Asian novels, The Buddha of Suburbia by Hanif Kureishi and Tourism by Nirpal Singh Dhaliwal, and argues that different locations can represent different identities - a notion that the protagonists of the two novels are well aware of and play upon.
