Now with added author content - a Map of Colombo as viewed from the
afterlife + Dramatis Personae
A magical realism whodunnit set amid Sri Lanka's civil war
Colombo, 1990. Maali Almeida, war photographer, gambler and closet gay,
has woken up dead in what seems like a celestial visa office. His
dismembered body is sinking in the serene Beira lake and he has no idea
who killed him. At a time where scores are settled by death squads,
suicide bombers and hired goons, the list of suspects is depressingly
long, as the ghouls and ghosts with grudges who cluster round can
attest.
But even in the afterlife, time is running out for Maali. He has seven
moons to try and contact the man and woman he loves most and lead them
to a hidden cache of photos that will rock Sri Lanka.
Sri Lanka's foremost author delivers a rip-roaring epic, full of
mordant wit and disturbing truths.
