A Sinhala-language handbook on the art of speaking in public, written by Lal Premanath De Mel. The text is entirely in Sinhala, with no English translation, so a reader will need to be comfortable in the language before ordering.
Its starting position is a simple one: some people are born with a facility for speaking, but that facility is not the whole story. Willingness, determination and sustained effort can take anyone towards competence as a speaker, and the book sets out to guide a reader along that path rather than to describe oratory from the outside.
It will suit Sinhala readers who have to stand up and address an audience — at work, in a classroom, at a public function or in community and religious settings — and who would rather prepare than improvise. It is equally aimed at anyone who simply wants to speak more confidently and has decided to work at it.
