A weird read that took me a while to adjust to the style of writing. Once I got into it though, it gripped me.

This book was not for me.. I don’t know anything about Sri Lanka / Lankan politics and that’s what it was centered around… I also found it scary and didn’t like reading it at night… but I can see why it was nominated for a booker prize
