Reseña del libro "Losing Santhia: Life and Loss in the Struggle for Tamil Eelam (en Inglés)"
On a small stretch of sand in north-eastern Sri Lanka 2009, the armed forces slaughtered tens of thousands of Tamils. The Tamil Tigers, who had waged a three-decade-long war of national liberation, were militarily defeated. But some of their ranks survived. Santhia was one. After the war, she and her infant son tried to reach Australia but were stranded in Indonesia. Santhia died in a Jakarta hospital in October 2017 aged just forty-two.Sponsored by the Tamil Refugee Council, Ben Hillier travelled to Indonesia and Sri Lanka after Santhia's death to piece together her life. In this essay, she appears as an individual expression of a nationals fight for liberation. The piece is paired with a seminal document, Liberation Tigers and Tamil Eelam freedom struggle, written in 1983 by Anton Balasingham on behalf of the Tigers' political committee."A remarkable essay ... All those interested in contemporary struggles for self-determination should read this." - Gill H. Boehringer, former head of Macquarie University Law School"An excellent background to the ongoing Eelam Tamil struggle" - N. Malathy, author of A fleeting moment in my country: the last years of the LTTE de-facto state"A compelling account of the struggle for independence" - Ana Pararajasingham, editor of Sri Lanka: 60 years of "independence" and beyond"An important and moving contribution" - Helen Jarvis, vice president of the Permanent Peoples' Tribunal"An honest appraisal of what happened to members of the Tigers" - Lee Rhiannon, former Australian Greens federal senator
