In his second novel ‘Yesterday’s Ghosts’, Nikhil Pradhan explores an unconventional form to tell a spy story set in war-torn Sri Lanka
The novel opens in a grove in Sri Lanka’s North, peopled by Tamils who for three decades fought the Sinhala-dominated government for Eelam, their own version of a homeland.
