Sathyakama
by Kathleen Jayawardene
Description
Sathyakama is perhaps the greatest novel of Kathleen Jayawardane, based on the quest of an individual for truth of love.
It can be described as one of the most interesting and profound philosophical novels written in Sinhala. Sathyakama, a young man, son of a rich Brahmin, encounters emotional conflict with his own self, renounces the household life, and becomes a wanderer, following a tortuous and torturous path living in forest among animals and nature, meeting ascetics and intellectuals of the day, including Gauthama the Buddha, learning from them re-shaping his quest.
Extraordinary moving novel, unfolded in a historical setting of the sixth century BC India, and elegantly written in a language of poetic prose.
