Announcing the publication of
DELIGHTFULLY IMPERFECT : A
YEAR IN SRI LANKA AT THE GALLE FACE HOTEL
by Paul Harris
Publication January 2007
from Kennedy & Boyd Publishers, Glasgow, Scotland
Award-winning international
journalist and author of more than 40 books, Paul Harris, worked for
The Daily Telegraph (London) and Jane's Intelligence Review in Sri Lanka
between 1996 and 2002. For one year, he lived in the Galle Face Hotel
before being thrown out of the country on the personal instruction of
PM Ranil Wickremesinghe who, in turn, had been ordered by the leadership
of the LTTE to get rid of the troublesome Harris.
Since leaving Sri Lanka he
has lived under the shadow of a death sentence issued by the leadership
of the LTTE and has been under the protection of the British security
services. How this remarkable situation came about is the subject of
this new book DELIGHTFULLY IMPERFECT. It provides a unique perspective
on politics and conflict in Sri Lanka, with much previously undisclosed
information, as well as an intimate glimpse inside a legendary hotel.
The book is available worldwide
from Amazon.
