Trouble over

The past year was a whirlwind of words and places. The previous four were spent in the trance of reporting. For five years, I have been working on my book - it is my first, but feels like the only, ever. I have maintained a guarded silence about it, afraid it would go away, disappear, or exhaust itself if I spoke about it. But those I interviewed, people I consulted, and a handful of friends knew how much it consumed me. 

It is now almost ready, with its powerful image on the cover, to be shared with readers I tried hard not to think about throughout the process. The Seasons of Trouble: Life Amid the Ruins of Sri Lanka's Civil War.

From October 2014 onwards, it can be bought in stores and online. Until then, it remains a proof copy on my desk.

Rohini: Will you come to Los Angeles to speak about your work?
Would like to meet you, as I have followed the Civil war in Sri Lanka for years.
