A Sinhala novel by Sajith Kumara, published in Colombo by M. D. Gunasena & Co. The text is entirely in Sinhala, with no English translation, so it will suit readers who are comfortable reading the language.
The story follows a young woman whose life, written out as though in carbon pen on a white page, could not simply be erased — so she tore it up. Rather than turn back, she went on along the same road and found a kind of ease there. The publisher's description sets the question the novel turns on: embers lie under the ash, and when they catch again, what becomes of her?
Love, separation, trust and deception are the forces the book works with, and the fate it traces belongs to a life concealed in a dimension no one else can see. Kanni is the title she carries.
For readers of contemporary Sinhala fiction, and for Sri Lankans abroad keeping up with novels published at home.
