InTrad/03/24. Are we becoming dehumanised? One of the stories told in the book "Twelve Cries from Home", by Minoli Salgado, published by Repeater Books 2022. "At once subtle and shocking, powerful and probing, Minoli Salgado's beautifully-written account of a 1700km journey through her ancestral home of Sri Lanka unearths concealed political violence through the stories of twelve victim-survivors of the country's twenty-six-year civil war.  
Written with deep insight and sensitivity, "Twelve Cries from  Home" navigates stories of loss and healing, linking speakers and listeners in an intimate, unsettling and daring act of witness.  It offers fresh insights into the messy aftermath of war, exposing the tangle of relationships that connects victims and perpetrators and the different ways in which revenge is understood and reconciliation performed.  It also offers a devastating critique of official denials and dismissals of torture, enforced disappearance and extrajudicial killings".
