THE FORCE BEHIND THE FORCES

This book by Swapnil Pandey is based on real-life stories from the Indian Army. The book attempts to highlight the extraordinary lives of the wives of the killed soldiers. I had an opportunity to read books on wars and soldiers from all over the world and our country. But, this book feels so personal and close to heart as we get to listen to real people's real struggles and emotions.

The book has seven stories, each of which is celestial in its way. Each story tends to inspire future generations. How the author has presented the veer naris' stories is indeed stupendous. Every woman showcased the valor, courage, and strength that is ever inspiring. The unbiased and selfless women and families who give the country the bravest people to safeguard the citizens is an act of extreme bravery. The women of the soldiers' households are as bold as the soldiers on the borders.

About the Book

The Force Behind the Forces is a collection of seven true stories of eternal love, courage and sacrifice. Written by an army wife, Swapnil Pandey, this book brings to light moving stories of unimaginable valour in the face of broken dreams, lost hopes and shattered families.

Reading each story gave me a space to think, ponder and question my responsibility as a citizen. This is a must-read and definite recommendation to all, especially the youngsters.

A SHORT WALK ON THE MEMORY LANE

Nostalgia is both an ache and a draught, a draught more aptly as it provides the required energy to the wistful heart and patiently remains one’s undeterred friend during lonesome times and even transporting one to the blissful world of memories far away from the tension-ridden beguiling present.

Wandering Into the Nostalgic Lane to Seal a Promise

Distantly, what caught their breadth was the seraphic view of snow-capped Himalayas at the backdrops, partially covered in the thin blanket of white clouds. The air was crisp with a hint of Nostalgia as the sound of the nearby streams whispered tales of their past.
