DESTINY
About the book In a sun-kissed land far from the madding crowd, nestling among soft ferns, rainbows and rain forests coursed by wandering streams, its palm-fringed sandy shores lapped by gentle ocean waves, the Tamils and the Sinhale live as brothers in the picturesque Island sequestered by the British as an imperial possession. Ponniah and sister Ponnammah belonging to the wealthy Ambalavanar Pillai Tamil family are journeying in the cool mountains of Sinhale country, when they behold a baby girl abandoned on a desolate trail. Ponnammah, married but childless, brings up the baby as her own. Meena grows up in a magical world, roaming the land, swimming with the mermaids and dancing with the angels, blossoming into womanhood and falling in love, as she becomes a part of the heady days when her land throws off the shackles of foreign yoke. And then begins the tempestuous years when brother fights brother and neighbors became sworn enemies, when Meena comes face to face for the first time with her own people, the Sinhale. What does the future hold for the Sinhale girl ….. brought up as a Tamil?
