Zustand: Very Good. : Ambientada en el contexto de la guerra civil de Sri Lanka, la épica novela de Ru Freeman explora las vidas de las diversas familias que viven en Sal Mal Lane y las desgarradoras formas en que esta comunidad, que alguna vez fue armoniosa, se enfrenta entre sí con el país al borde de la guerra. El día en que la familia Herath se muda, Sal Mal Lane es una calle tranquila, perturbada solo por los gritos de los niños cuyos triunfos y tragedias sostienen a las familias que viven allí. A medida que cada vecino se adapta a los recién llegados de diferentes maneras, los niños llenan sus días con partidos de cricket, enamoramientos románticos y pequeñas rivalidades. Pero cuando las mareas de la guerra civil comienzan a volverse hacia el vecindario, sus diferencias se encienden de maneras que nadie podría haber imaginado. A medida que la estabilidad de su vecindario se ve amenazada por creencias y prejuicios políticos conflictivos, los niños de la comunidad se ven obligados a ver a sus padres y amigos volverse unos contra otros. Vistos a través de los ojos de los niños, los eventos en Sal Mal Lane llegan a reflejar el curso del Sri Lanka moderno en su momento más violento y volátil. Una obra poderosa y evocadora, On Sal Mal Lane ilumina magistralmente los orígenes de esta guerra y explora hasta dónde llegará la familia para protegerse mutuamente.
