A collection of recollections from the working life of Anula de Silva, a Sri Lankan journalist and writer, drawn from the years she spent at Lake House. The pieces gather the experiences — some tender, some affecting — that came to her through newspaper work, and they are told as she lived them rather than arranged as a formal memoir of the profession.
De Silva belonged to a generation of women who entered Sri Lankan journalism when few did, and the book is the record of one such career set down by the person who had it. Readers who follow Sinhala writing, or who have an interest in the people behind Colombo's newspaper houses, are the natural audience.
Please note: this book is written entirely in Sinhala. There is no English text and no parallel translation, so it will be readable only to those with Sinhala. Buyers outside Sri Lanka ordering on the strength of the subject should be aware of this before purchasing.
