Description
'There aren't many good things to be said about this miserable year but one of them is that another collection of Goenawan's essays has appeared to assure us that there is more thinking to be done.'
Daniel S. Lev. University of Washington, author of Legal Evolution and Political Authority in Indonesia.
Stylistically, Goenawan's prose is supple and creative while remaining deeply rooted in Indonesian's Malay origins. Substantively it expresses and engages brilliantly the full complexity of modern life. No other essayist, since the beginning of modern Indonesian, has reached anything like Goenawan's level of achievement.
