Book Summary
โNever have Tamil women burned so bright, never have they dazzled so much, as when they were tigressesโฆ but nothing had prepared me to Brace for the reality that these powerful women would be so vulnerable. โ in 2009, The genocidal war of the Sri Lankan state against tamils ends. In 2012, Meena Kandasamy, who grew up with poster-size pictures of Tamil tigers and tigresses, decides to make a documentary on the violence faced by the female fighters of the liberation tigers of Tamil Eelam in the aftermath of the brutal war. She meets the women who had survived the Sri Lankan camps where the orders were to rape themโwomen who are now refugees in distant lands, pale shadows of their blazing selves. Her documentary never gets made. But Kandasamy exhumes old hard drives to piece together their shattered lives. Kandasamy also translates and presents us the poetry of three Tamil women combatantsโpoetry as op-ed, poetry as resistance, poetry as a call to arms, poetry as a call to poetry.
