Guardian Bookshop Notes:

A first novel of remarkable and compelling power, set in Sri Lanka, London and Venice. Beautifully written, by turns heartbreaking and uplifting, it is a lyrical and profoundly moving story of love, loss and civil war, and should appeal to fans of Helen Dunmore and Rachel Sieffert.

Publisher's description:

When author returns to his native Sri Lanka after his wife's death, he hopes to escape his gnawing loss amidst the lush landscape of his increasingly war-torn country. But as he sinks into life in his beautiful, tortured land, he also finds himself slipping into friendship with an artistic young girl, Nulani.
