Description

Amma is a powerful novel about the enduring impact of the past on families. In 1951, ten-year-old Josephina takes a courageous step that sets in motion a chain of events that will shape her life and the lives of those around her.

As Annie, Josephina's granddaughter, embarks on a journey to discover the truth about her family's history, she uncovers secrets and stories that reveal the complexities of identity, belonging, and the search for peace. Written in vivid prose, Amma is a moving exploration of the Sri Lankan diaspora and its rich cultural heritage.

This beautifully written novel explores how the past continues to live with us, often in unexpected ways, and how we strive to find our place in the world.
