The word anthology comes from the Greek anthologia, which is translated as "a gathering of flowers." An anthology is a collection of literary works like poetry, plays, short tales, and samples from other media like music, dramas, and television shows.
In the book "Remains," a soldier explains how it felt to murder a guy while serving in a combat zone. The title is a pun that alludes to both the idea of human remains—the dead man's body—and the horrifying recollections that the speaker still carries today.
Simon Armitage wrote a combat poem titled "Remains" that focuses on the thoughts and emotions of a soldier who shot a looter.
It is a dramatic monologue in which the speaker describes an occurrence that happened in the past and then muses on their own reaction to shooting a person who may or may not have been armed.
