Publisher's Synopsis

Beneath the superficial charm of Sri Lanka brews a complex struggle over ethnicity which threatens to turn this beautiful land into another Lebanon. This is an account of a society consumed by the hatreds of race and class, the brutalities of political violence and the quest for identity.
