This publication completes the National Trust- Sri Lanka series on the North and East with publications on Mannar, Batticaloa and Island of Islands in response to many requests from the public. The orange-red cover reminds of Jaffna’s chaya root heritage as well as its distinctive font. It is however not just another coffee table book with beautiful images although the opening pages with Devaka Seneviratne’s stunning photography suggests it is so. This book celebrates Jaffna as a multicultural city, a “meeting point of cultures and languages” where the old “grid city” is almost lost in the urban sprawl.
