Eka Kurniawan

Di puncak rezim yang penuh kekerasan, kisah ini bermula dari satu peristiwa: dua orang polisi memerkosa seorang perempuan gila, dan dua bocah melihatnya melalui lubang di jendela. Dan seekor burung memutuskan untuk tidur panjang. Di tengah kehidupan yang keras dan brutal, si burung tidur merupakan alegori tentang kehidupan yang tenang dan damai, meskipun semua orang berusaha membangunkannya.

My first Eka Kurniawan’s book that I read!! Was recommended by my co-worker, said it was absurd but well-written, and now I can see it.

Soo many disturbing scenes, there are parts which made me annoyed and mad, but it’s intriguing at the same time. I love the back and forth plot, kinda helped me make sense of some parts. I also like how the author described all the fighting scenes so well lol

** spoiler alert **
           It's actually weird & mind-blown in a good way. Lots of profanities and how human and lust taking over; Eka Kurniawan wrote it delicately. Some parts are making me uncomfortable but I think the hidden messages that he's tryna prove in there goes 🥶 Definitely gonna watch the movie! And I like he split the scene, conversations, throwback and current situations going back and forth but still it's easy to understand.

Drama dan romansa? ✓

Lebih banyak kekerasan dan seks? ✓

Sebuah buku yang lengkap dan mengagumkan. Walau penutupnya terkesan agak sedikit terburu-buru, secara garis besar, kisah sang protagonis dan tokoh-tokoh di sekitarnya dibawakan dengan baik oleh penulis. Buku ini benar-benar membuat saya tak mampu berhenti membacanya.

Sangat direkomendasikan.

Vivid, bawdy, comic, and arresting: the exciting new novel by the Indonesian phenomenon Ajo Kawir is one of the toughest fighters in the Javanese underworld, his fearlessness matched only by his unquenchable thirst for brawling. But the young thug is driven by a painful secret – he is impotent. When he finally meets his match in the shape of the fearsomely beautiful bodyguard Iteung, Ajo is left bruised, battered and overjoyed – he has fallen in love. But will he ever be able to make Iteung happy if he can’t get it up? Vengeance is Mine, All Others Pay Cash is a gloriously pulpy tale of bloody fists, broken hearts and dueling Jakarta truckers, from the Man Booker International-longlisted author of Beauty is a Wound. Eka Kurniawan was born in Tasikmalaya, Indonesia in 1975. He studied philosophy at Gadjah Mada University, Yogyakarta and has since published several novels and short stories. He was longlisted for the Man Booker International Prize 2016 and his books have been translated into 33 languages. His highly acclaimed, epic work of magical realism Beauty is a Wound is also available from Pushkin Press.
