Journey To Jaffna

This moving and unforgettable novel, ‘Journey to Jaffna’, is a powerful exploration of the conflicting ties of family and of the heart. Set in London, Russia and Sri Lanka, this book will find its way into your own heart. Param grew up in a strict Tamil family in Sri Lanka, but broke away from them to study in London. Even the violence facing Tamils back home could not affect the new life he built for himself with his English wife, Mary and their daughter. Now though, it is 1979, his father is dying and it is Param’s duty to make the journey back to Jaffna. As Param learns of the horrors his family and his ex-girlfriend Karthiga have endured, he faces his own struggle. Does he owe it to them to come back to Sri Lanka, or should his loyalties now lie with his English family? Or does Liz, the English/American woman he met on his long, disrupted journey, offer a way out?
