Un passage vers le Nord - Livre (French Edition)

Un passage vers le Nord is a poignant and thought-provoking novel that delves into the hearts of Sri Lankan youth today, exploring their struggles with violence, beauty, and memory.

Through the eyes of Krishan, a young man who returns to Colombo after studying in New Delhi, we witness his quest to help those affected by the civil war while grappling with the weight of his own past.

As he travels north to pay tribute to Rani, a woman who cared for his grandmother until her recent death, Krishan is haunted by the memory of Anjum, a young woman he loved passionately but lost touch with.

Through masterful prose and philosophical musings, Arudpragasam weaves a tale of a generation torn between their desire to live, their duty to remember, and the need for revolution.

This is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of Sri Lankan identity and the human experience.
