A reclusive Colombo philosopher hasn't looked out of his window in seven years-until Dilani steps into his room and changes the air. Alongside Pradeep, a midnight sculptor carving the horse that's always been inside the stone, their lives braid into a tender, sharply observed story about attention, generosity and the slow unlearning of loneliness. The Uncarved is for readers who favour quiet rooms, big hearts and sentences that open like windows.'This is the kind of novel you finish and immediately want to press into the hands of someone who understands that the best books are not about what happens, but about what changes when someone finally looks out the window. Vihanga Senadeera has written a small, perfect stone that speaks.'
