excellent insight to modern Indonesian culture 16 Nov 1998

By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback

This is a well written, easy to read set of short stories by one of Indonesia's finest contemporary writers and social critics. Reading these stories gives one an insight into the plight of Indonesia under Suharto. Mr. Lubis writes in the voice of the common man . An excellent read for anyone wishing to know more about Indonesians as people and as a culture.
