A novel in Sinhala by Kalpa Eranda, following a young man from the day he takes up work as a teacher. The experiences that come to him in that life — the sweet ones and the bitter ones alike — are the substance of the book, shaped into fiction rather than set down as memoir.
The whole text is in Sinhala, with no English translation, so this is a book for readers who read the language comfortably. It is published in Colombo by M. D. Gunasena & Co. (Pvt) Ltd.
Readers who have taught, trained to teach, or grown up around the profession will recognise the territory: the first posting, the classroom, and what the job does to a person over time. For Sinhala readers abroad who want contemporary fiction from home rather than reprints of the classics, it sits in that part of the list — a novel built out of ordinary working life.
