Un passage vers le Nord is a poignant and thought-provoking novel that delves into the hearts of Sri Lankan youths, their struggles, and their resilience in the face of war and trauma.

Through the eyes of Krishan, a young man who returns to Colombo after studying in New Delhi, we witness his journey as he tries to make a difference in his country's plight.

However, his efforts are met with limited success, leading him to embark on a quest to honor Rani, a woman who cared for his grandmother and was recently found dead in a well.

As Krishan navigates through the north of the island, he is haunted by the memory of Anjum, a young woman he loved passionately but lost touch with after she reconnected with him upon Rani's death.

Through Anuk Arudpragasam's masterful prose, we are taken on a journey that explores themes of love, loss, and the need for revolt in the face of adversity.

This novel is a must-read for anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of Sri Lanka's complex history and its people's unwavering spirit.
