Arms and the Woman
Deepti Menon
Arms and the Woman - New Delhi: Rupa & Co, 2002. - xi,275 p. PB 19x13 cm.
Arms and the Woman is the personal account of an Army wife, formerly an Army child. From postings to 'breaking in' new recruits, from fringe benefits to festivities, from welfare activities to friction within the ranks, the author's reminiscences are full of observation and wit. Interspersed with these moments are experiences as common to most women as to be pleasantly familiar, be it managing domestic help, laundering or the more serious issue of motherhood. Racy and humorous, the book describes facets of life of men in uniform not commonly explored. It is likely to entertain readers in the Army as well as out of it.
