Assured and accomplished, Pradeep Jeganathan's long awaited debut
collection of short fiction is a spare, controlled meditation on
the details of inhabitation: power and inequality, friendship and
enmity, love and loss, violence and its memories. The seven
interconnected stories span a near thirty years of his county's
recent past; each traces a delicately textured frame of troubling,
telling beauty, weaving together, with almost incredible economy,
not the often composed image of Sri Lanka - a paradise isle where
'only man is vile' - but a life world, live and remembered, to be
lived in again.
