On a sunny morning in August 1945, a handful of tired people raised a
homemade cotton flag and announced the birth of a new nation:
Indonesia. For three and a half centuries, its people had been subject
to Dutch colonial rule. It would take another four years of guerrilla
warfare and resistance – the ‘Revolusi’ – to finally win their freedom,
blazing a trail that would reshape the world.
Drawing on hundreds of interviews and eye-witness testimonies, David
Van Reybrouck’s superbly woven narrative is alive with human detail at
every turn, showing Indonesia’s struggle for independence to be one of
the defining dramas of the twentieth century.
