A collection of short stories in Sinhala by Nimasha Sadaruwani, published in Colombo by M. D. Gunasena & Co. The whole book is in Sinhala — there is no English text in it — so it will suit readers who are comfortable reading the language.
The stories are concerned with human behaviour and with the workings of the mind: the complicated interior of a person, and the various sides of thought and of ordinary life. The publisher describes the collection as written for readers who are drawn to reading people, to understanding how minds work and what sits behind the way people act.
Short fiction of this kind occupies a steady place in contemporary Sinhala writing, where the single-volume story collection remains a common form for newer authors. Readers who follow current Sinhala short stories, and anyone building a shelf of present-day fiction from Sri Lanka, will know the shape of this kind of book.
M. D. Gunasena & Co. is a long-established Colombo publisher and bookseller issuing titles in Sinhala and English across general reading and education.
