Book Review:
''I Am the Wings'' is a beautifully written and atmospheric novel by Christine Wilson, a writer who grew up surrounded by books, writing, and adventure as the daughter of the legendary R.L. Spittel. This novel, set in the remote highlands of Sri Lanka, captures the mysticism and spiritual essence of the landscape.

Wilson's prose is evocative and lyrical, drawing readers into a world that is both foreign and deeply familiar. The story explores the profound connection between people and the land they inhabit, and the title, suggested by her father, perfectly captures the sense of freedom and transcendence that the highlands inspire.

This is a must-read for anyone who enjoys literary fiction and stories set in Sri Lanka. It is a testament to Wilson's talent as a storyteller and her deep love for her homeland. Highly recommended!
