Year: 20xx Language: English Author: Thomas K. Joseph Genre: Fiction Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 224 Description: This is a biographical attempt with elements of fiction. Let me clarify. The story is about the extraordinary life of my dad, traced from his struggles in an impoverished village in rural Kerala, India. His unacknowledged contribution in the Indian independence movement as a mutineer and a life tinged with the spirit of generosity. The trauma and uncertainty about his death, when the merchant ship he captained, M.V. Kairali, was lost, presumed sunk off the Goan coast, is an unavoidable chapter. Though the foundation of the story is essentially true it is largely based on snippets of conversation with relatives, friends, and mostly from my late mom. The attached rider of fiction is due to my inability to unimpeachably vouchsafe all the facts. Yes, I candidly admit that we hardly knew each other. While I was away in a boarding school, he was toiling hard as a merchant mariner, out in the vast, wide open seas, to provide for us.
