Introducing Postmodernism translated to Sinhala by K.K. Saman Kumara - ['පශ්චාත් නුතනවාදය, හැඳින්වීමක් - කේ. කේ. සමන් කුමාර'] and Postmodernism : A short description by Professor Wimal Dissanayake ('පශ්චාත් නව්‍යවාදය [කෙටි හැඳින්වීමක්] - මහාචාර්ය විමල් දිසානායක') : Complexity summarised.




These two Sinhalese books about 'postmodernism' can be understood as an introduction to the very complex concept of 'postmodernism' summarised.

These two books will only be an introduction to 'postmodernism'.

Therefore this would be just the beginning for a reader.

The two books have introduced the philosophy of postmodernism in a very summarised manner and have used many examples as well.

"Introducing Postmodernism" Sinhala translation by K.K. Saman Kumara is a good book comparatively to Professor Wimal Dissanayake's "postmodernism [a short introduction]".

The book's cover may attempt to symbolically reflect commercialization of the female body as a sexual object with reference to Marylin Monroe.

Finally to conclude the review on these two (02) books I would Like to say that these two (02) books have been able to provide an introduction to postmodernism to Sinhalese readers in a summarised manner.
