At the moment I am a little bit shocked. The text is still in my mind, the words are dancing in my head. A melancholic interview with an old female soldier who fought for India in a never existing war. There is a taste of Clavells "King Rat" mixed with some deeper thoughts. Is there a possible coexistence with another species or only war in our blood? All that is covered with a wish of an old nonexisting Earth from naive Bollywood films, similiar to Heinleins "Forever War". Looooooove this text, expect the unexpected, especially from India.
