The Elephant Complex: Travels in Sri Lanka by John Gimlette [Paperback]
No one sees the world quite like John Gimlette. His travels reveal the country as never before. Beginning in the exuberant capital, Colombo ( a hint of anarchy everywhere ), he ventures out in all directions: to the dry zones where the island s 5,800 wild elephants congregate around ancient reservoirs; through cinnamon country with its Portuguese forts; to the Bible Belt of Buddhism the tsunami-ravaged southeast coast; then up into the great green highlands ( the garden in the sky ) and Kandy, the country s eccentric, aristocratic Shangri-la.
