Sitor Situmorang, one of the most celebrated Indonesian literary
voices of the twentieth century, claimed that all his work dealt
with a single theme-"love and wanderlust," which are "two aspects
of one and the same experience." His remarkable short stories are
celebrations of modern life, dealing with subjects such as seeking,
belonging, identity, masculinity, and sensual interaction with the
world at large. The characters are both introspective and physical,
the settings sparse but evocative, the circumstances ordinary yet
unexpected. The publication of this volume of fourteen stories is
the culmination of a request Sitor once made of Harry Aveling to
render his stories in English. The translation of his complete
short stories now shares the exceptional creative prose of Sitor
Situmorang with audiences around the world.
