Fiction
Set adrift by the recent death of his wife, Theo
Samarajeeva abandons his comfortable writer’s life in
London and returns to Sri Lanka, his war- torn homeland.
There he meets Nulani, a talented and enigmatic young
artist. An unorthodox and tenuous love blossoms between
this unlikely pair. Nulani finally feels love, and Theo
sees hope in his future. But when the insurgency explodes,
their precarious world is torn apart. Theo is held captive
and stripped of everything he once held dear. Nulani is
forced into exile. As the years pass, and the poison of war
spreads across this paradise, will their love be lost
forever? By turns heartbreaking and uplifting, Mosquito is
a first novel of remarkable beauty and compelling power.
