The Unassuming Legend, a compilation of a candid conversation with Ravi Jayawardene by Indu Perera, translated into English by Ajith Perakum Jayasinghe is vivid testimony of a man who did not want to be larger than life, but that is what he unassumingly and ultimately becomes Eloquent and honest, Ravi Jayawardene, the only child of former President J.R Jayewardene, in his first interview, opens himself up through the text. Anecdotes of daring adventures from his childhood paint the story of a boy who not only laughed at his own folly, but who cared little of what others thought. This mix of swashbuckling insouciance and cheery pragmatism sets the tone for J.R Jayewardene’s son subsequent and rather extraordinary life.
