Download or read book A Fleeting Moment in My Country written by N. Malathy and published by SCB Distributors. This book was released on 2012-09-13 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Little is known about the Tamil liberation cause and struggle, as it has been widely dismissed by global powers of all persuasions-the USA, Russia, China and India-each driven by their own realpolitik concerns and self- interests. This book, written by a Diaspora Tamil engaged in human rights work in the Tamil-controlled area of Vanni up until it was overrun by Sri Lankan forces, provides a compelling insider’s look at the motivations, issues and complexities of this largely secret civil war; the entire text is based on first hand observation and includes sociological insights based on these first hand observations. Isolatd in their struggle and condemned by world opinion, the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Elam (LTTE) nonetheless proved capable of withstanding all external forces for a period of decades, drawing large numbers of Tamils, both inside Sri Lanka and outside in the Tamil Diaspora, to support tits cause. The LTTE created a progressive internal movement that succeeded in breaking down ancient caste barriers that had resisted the political inducements and leadership of figures such as Gandhi, and inculcated a climate of social justice and equality. This book describes what life was like on the ground inside Tamil- controlled territory where the forces of war were held at bay-what the author has referred to in the title of this book as "The Fleeting Moment...". What followed was a process of the destruction of everything that she described when it was overrun by the Sri Lankan army and the Tamil genocide began.

Download or read book A Life Less Beautiful written by Tyrone D. Oates and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2007-08-17 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A Life Less Beautiful” is a collection of philosophy, poetry and prose written over more than a decade. It is a philosophical landscape of the human heart and the journey it takes to find love and fulfillment. The work is emotionally charged and touches on all the aspects of human life and relationships. It is a literary realistic impression of the Author’s own emotional journeys. Heartache and loss are the central theme of the book which culminates in an emotionally gripping theory of human fulfillment. All of us will recognize pieces of our own journey in the book’s content. It reflects the human condition prevalent in society and the hidden pages of emotional disparity all of us conceal from the world. In times of heartache and despair, anger and loss, we all seek answers to end the chaotic frenzy of disillusionment and suffering. To see expressed in pure literary terms the imperfection and vulnerability of our hearts is to receive the morphine necessary to ease the pain that living and loving brings. The book is a philosophical and poetical genre of life coaching and self help that will place readers in the centre of their emotional self and commence the healing process necessary to find fulfillment. The didactic nature of the verse will further help readers acknowledge the destructive nature of their fears and insecurities and help them embrace the life potential within the painful lessons they learn. Above all “A Life Less Beautiful” is a textbook of love, its pain and its treasures. If Shackleton found “the naked soul of man” on his arctic expedition of 1914, then “A Life Less Beautiful” is “the naked heart of man” published in 2007.
