Sobre este artículo
Chapel Hill, North Carolina: Algonquin Books, 2012. First Edition. Hardcover. As New/As New. 8vo - over 7?" - 9?" tall. Type: Remainder First Printing of First Edition Hardcover Book and Dust Jacket As New. Burgundy cloth with gilt tilles is pristine. Rem Mk to lower edge. Weaving together the stories of Janaki, her sister Lakshmi, now a refuge whose husband, a Tamil sympathizer, has disappeared and Sam, an American Peace Corps worker who boards with Janaki's family, Luloff explores the themes of memory and identity amid the consequences of the Sri Lanka civil war. From different points of view, across generations and geographies, it pits the destructive powers of war against the resilient power of family and individual will.
