Margaret Trawick lived and worked in Batticaloa in eastern Sri Lanka, where thousands of youths have been recruited into the Sri Lankan armed resistance movement known as the Tamil Tigers. This compelling account of her experiences is a powerful exploration of how children respond to the presence of war and how adults have responded to the presence of children in this conflict. Her beautifully written account, which includes voices of the teenagers and young adults who have joined the Tamil Tigers, brings alive a region where childhood, warfare, and play have become commingled in a world of continuous uncertainty.Children and violenceSri LankaBatticaloa DistrictChildren and warSri LankaBatticaloa DistrictChildrenSri LankaBatticaloa DistrictSocial conditionsTamil (Indic people)Sri LankaBatticaloa DistrictSocial conditionsBatticaloa District (Sri Lanka)Social conditionsElectronic books.Children and violenceChildren and warChildrenSocial conditions.Tamil (Indic people)Social conditions.954.93032Trawick Margaret1037554MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910457590403321Enemy lines2458600UNINA
