Contours of Him: Poems by Malachi Edwin Vethamani (ed.)

Childhood innocence and curiosity sharply contrast with the challenges of maturation and understanding. This book examines the strength and fragility of the male physique, honouring the legendary qualities of male archetypes and likening them to warriors and deities. At the same time, it acknowledges men’s societal expectations and cultural insecurities, particularly regarding their identity and the search for acceptance.
