Résumé
It begins with a message : a telephone call informing Krishan that his grandmother's former caregiver has died. As Krishan makes the long journey by train from the Sri Lankan capital into the wartorn Nothern Province for the funeral, so he travels into the soul of a country devastated by civil war. Writtern with precision and grace. A passage North is a luminous meditation on time and national idetiy, and a poignant exploration of the unattainable distances between who we are and what we seek.
