The Insistence of Memory in Sri Lanka

The survivors wait less patiently. They demand the truth about their missing loved ones. They defy the prohibitions on mourning their dead and construct makeshift memorials out of the wreckage of their cemeteries.
( May 17, 2018, Boston, Sri Lanka Guardian) By
the time I got there, the bones were gone. But eight years out from the
end of the Sri Lankan Civil War, everything else was still there,
carpeting the beach where the final battle was fought. Suitcases
half-buried in sand, battered metal cookware, orphaned TV remotes, photo
albums disfigured by water damage, and the yards and yards of fabric,
shredded and lying in viscera-like loops on the ground.
