Narrative As Books Pulang

Paris, Mei 1968.

Ketika revolusi mahasiswa berkecamuk di Paris, Dimas Suryo seorang eksil politik Indonesia bertemu Vivienne Deveraux, seorang mahasiswa Prancis yang ikut demonstrasi melawan pemerintah Prancis. Pada saat yang sama, Dimas menerima kabar dari Jakarta: Hananto Prawiro, sahabatnya, ditangkap tentara dan dinyatakan tewas. Dimas merasa cemas dan gamang. Bersama puluhan wartawan dan seniman lain, dia tak bisa kembali ke Jakarta karena paspornya dicabut oleh pemerintah Indonesia. Sejak itu mereka mengelana tanpa status yang jelas dari Santiago ke Havana, ke Peking dan akhirnya mendarat di tanah Eropa untuk mendapatkan suaka dan menetap di sana.

Di tengah kesibukan mengelola Restoran Tanah Air di Paris bersama tiga kawannya: Nug, Tjai, dan Risjaf—mereka berempat disebut Empat Pilar Tanah Air—Dimas, terus-menerus dikejar rasa bersalah karena kawan-kawannya di Indonesia satu persatu tumbang, dikejar, ditembak, atau menghilang begitu saja dalam perburuan Peristiwa 30 September. Apalagi dia tak bisa melupakan Surti Anandari—isteri Hananto—yang bersama ketiga anaknya berbulan-bulan diinterogasi tentara.

Evaluate Based On Books Pulang

Robert Frost once said that home is our destination, the place that will embrace us. It is a place of comfort, culture, family, and, in the case of Leila Chudori's Home, food. Chudori's story tells of a family oppressed and stigmatised by the 1960s Indonesian military regime. Originally written and published in Bahasa Indonesian as Pulang, Home is forthcoming in English from Deep Vellum Publishing, translated by John H. McGlynn. Chudori won the Khatulistiwa award for her book, Indonesia's

Uncovering the dark-side of the biggest chaotic massacre ever happened on our nations.taking the political-prisoner point of view mixed with the complex love-hate relationship between two person (parent-children, lover, friends)full with emotions, rage, sadness and strong will to uncover the truth behind the September 30th Incident.Historical fiction that mixed up up with emotional story? Surely worth to read.

I moved this review to my blog

This book was great. This is not an advanced edit, but some parts read like it. I actually believe that with another editor, this book could be a strong contender for some national book awards and wide publication and reading. Would give 5/5 stars, but reserve one for that reason.If you're interested in Southeast Asian literature, this is a must read. A fictional look at the lives of Indonesian Political Exiles, this book takes you to a far more personal understanding of how President Suharto's

I began reading Pulang/Home (English translation) after hearing Leila Chudori speak at my university a couple of weeks ago. Other than this book, I have never read any other Indonesian literature and thought Pulang sounded like an interesting place to start - and it was. I have limited knowledge about Indonesia's political history but Leila Chudori covered the historical side well. It was shocking to learn what happened in 1965 and the years that followed. However, the book is not entirely about

Leila S. Chudoris Home (translated by John H. McGlynn) circles around a black day in Indonesian history, while not revealing much about what happened on September 30, 1965. Instead, it details the long aftermath of the violence and the violent, repressive crackdown on communism through the lives of Dimas Suryo and his family. McGlynns translation includes some poorly chosen words and the book could have done with more editing, as it contains some typos...Read the rest of my review at A Bookish

Pro: 1. quick, light, engaging read. I finished it over the weekend. 2. great topic esp read now when PKI is again used as a scapegoatCons:1. irrelevant. Might be interesting in 2006 but in 2017? Some of the 'heroes' of the Trisakti events have proven to be jerks. 2. the May riot was an after thought. Kind of unacceptable although when read in he context of 'the dictator never abdicates' makes sense. 3. what is it with Indonesian novel and sex scenes obsessions? I am not prudes (really!) but 3
