A Sinhala novel by Shanthi Dissanayake, an established novelist, published in Colombo by M. D. Gunasena & Co. The entire text is in Sinhala, with no English translation, so it will suit readers who are comfortable reading the language.
The novel is concerned with social friction, and with the collision that occurs between people who have already been battered and broken by life. Rather than settling on a single viewpoint, Dissanayake works through her characters one by one, setting out the different angles from which each of them looks at life and letting those perspectives come up against one another.
For readers abroad who keep up with contemporary Sinhala fiction, or who are building a collection of Sri Lankan novels in the original language, this is a work of social realism from a writer with a body of published fiction behind her.
