The Life and Death of a Revolutionary Tamil Journalist in Sri Lanka. This remarkable book is both an intimate portrait of the man himself, and a fascinating account of the political dilemmas that he faced - and that still face us today. It explains how an educated man adopts a position of supporting violence. And while his position softens, Sivaram remains critical of the liberal political principles that govern Western policy. Written by a close friend, this unique account highlights some of the most difficult political questions facing us today.
