Shehan Karunatilaka

The other day I stopped in at Porter Square Books to browse, sample their fab ginger lemonade, and listen to an author reading. His book, The Legend of Pradeep Mathew has won several prizes and I was interested hear this Sri Lankan author speak.

He was funny and articulate and a natural story teller. He wove a story and read bits of his book here and there for added color. And yes, I just added another book to my TBR pile.
