Her 2013 memoir, Wave, recounts her experiences in the tsunami and the progression of her grief in the ensuing years.[6] It was shortlisted for the 2013 National Book Critics Circle Award (Autobiography)[7][8] and won the PEN Ackerley Prize 2013.[9] This book is currently used as a prose passage in the education system (O/Level) for English Literature in Sri Lanka.
