A study of Guttila Kavyaya, the classical Sinhala poem set for the Sinhala paper of the G.C.E. Advanced Level examination under the revised syllabus. Kalpa Eranda works through the text closely, examining it in detail for candidates preparing for that paper.
The book is written entirely in Sinhala, and the poem it discusses is a Sinhala classic, so it assumes a reader who is comfortable reading the language. Buyers outside Sri Lanka should know that there is no English text here and no parallel translation.
It is a school book in the plainest sense: its purpose is to help students sitting the examination understand the prescribed poem and answer on it well. That makes it useful chiefly to Advanced Level candidates and to the teachers preparing them, though readers abroad who studied the Sinhala syllabus, or who want a Sinhala-language commentary on Guttila Kavyaya for their own reading, may find it worth having.
