Maali Almeida, war photographer, gambler and closet queen, has woken up dead in what seems like a celestial visa office. His dismembered body is sinking in the serene Beira lake and he has no idea who killed him. At a time where scores are settled by death squads, suicide bombers and hired goons, the list of suspects is depressingly long, as the ghouls and ghosts with grudges who cluster round can attest. But even in the afterlife, time is running out for Maali. He has seven moons to try and contact the man and woman he loves most and lead them to a hidden cache of photos that will rock Sri Lanka.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTen years after his prizewinning novel \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eChinaman\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003eestablished him as one of Sri Lanka's foremost authors, Shehan Karunatilaka is back with a mordantly funny, searing satire. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Seven Moons of Maali Almeida\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is a state-of-the-nation epic that proves yet again that the best fiction offers the ultimate truth.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFiction: general and literary\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePaperback\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShehan Karunatilaka\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e400 pages\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eH: 214mm W: 134mm Spine: 32mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight: 405 grams\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sort of Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42579491979414,"sku":"9781914502064","price":36.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0587\/4978\/0118\/products\/jacket---2023-05-02T165034-817.jpg?v=1683003087","url":"https:\/\/www.tawabooksandpost.co.nz\/products\/the-seven-moons-of-maali-almeida-winner-of-the-booker-prize-2022","provider":"Tawa Books \u0026 Post","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
