You might have read many tales of war and courage told by former soldiers. But what about their emotional lives, their relationships and life in cantonments?
Cantonment Kathakal, the first anthology of military stories in Malayalam, brought out by Forum for Art and Culture of Eagles (FACE), an ex-servicemen’s forum, tells such tales. The anthology is a collection of 13 short stories.
There are writers who once donned the uniform while some are their spouses who had spent a major part of their life in cantonments. The anthology is edited by Hari Arayammakkul, another soldier-turned writer.
