About This Item
Colombo: M. D. Gunasena & Company (Private) Limited, 2018. New ed.. Paperback trade, very good condition, crease in flyleaf, bottom corner front cover creased, laminate coating lifting slightly bottom edge rear cover, minor edgewear. 160 pp. A heritage Sri Lankan novel for young adults, originally published in 1918. Kakiyan, a common crow, tells his story, a mixture of everyday events, from the time he was born in the Jacaranda Condominium to the twilight years of his life. Many crow personalities slip in and out of the book adding character and colour, tears and laughter to this well-crafted saga about crows, and what they think of the humans walking down below.
