Description

Ruins is a powerful and moving debut novel that explores the complexities of family life in the aftermath of war. Against the vibrant backdrop of Sri Lanka's capital city, five family members struggle to find their place in the world. As they navigate the crowded streets, waiting rooms, and glittering nightclubs of Colombo, each character faces their own unique challenges. Latha seeks a sense of home, Anoushka desires an iPod, Mano hopes to win back his wife, Lakshmi dreams of rescuing a lost boy, and Niranjan yearns for financial freedom. With its ambitious structure and richly drawn characters, Ruins heralds the arrival of a gifted new talent in Australian fiction.
