Recenzii

"Through a series of deeply moving narratives, Thiranagama analyzes the multiplicity of Tamil identifications in Jaffna and brings stories of Muslims back into academic understandings of the war. Thiranagama has written a fantastic and fascinating first book."-Journal of Asian Studies "As an anthropologist, Thiranagama is interested in how uncontrollable eruptions of violence dislocate people's lives... [In My Mother's House] leaves a profound sense of the victims' unfathomable losses."-Foreign Affairs "The ethnographic In My Mother's House ... places Sri Lanka's conflict in its right time-frame, bringing back into the discussion the history before 2009, and how the violence that people experienced over three decades changed lives and society forever."-The Hindu
