Returning to the Valley of the Vanantaka River

A love story, a song, a testimony of a woman`s journey from childhood to adulthood, from the riverbanks of her earliest memories back to the hill and the lowlands where she first grew up in the north.

"Returning to the Valley of the Vanantaka River" is an autobiographical account about the challenges and victories she encounters on her way to personal freedom. The book will both move and amuse, it will make you laugh and it will make you cry. Gentle humor softens the author`s at times relentless questioning about the nature of reality and the worth and value of human beings in an ever-changing world.
