‘Wijeweera’s Daughter’. The title of a tragic novel that might never get written.

The families of failed revolutionaries (or terrorists, extremists and insurgents if you prefer that nomenclature) tend to be a far cry from beds of roses, especially if the particular individual has perished in battle.  The near and dear of those who are successful in capturing power are talked about.  Others fade away and become less and less newsworthy.
