Moments and Memories is—in the words of Mrs Gunamuni Mendis herself—
“…a book, scrap book, diary, autobiography, pin potha – whatever you like to call it!”

This is a fascinating compilation of stories and anecdotes from a grand old lady of Colombo
who spared no expense in her efforts to befriend, educate and help everyone she met—
from security guards, domestics and beggars, to her own family and friends.

Filled with her musings on Buddhism and illustrated by her own colourful drawings,
this memoir is like none other; one that we enjoyed producing in partnership with
this remarkable and spirited lady.
