Spaces is an invitation to reflect on the meaning of life, a healing balm on the wounds of civilization. (Galuh Wandita)
Putu Oka Sukanta is one of many victims of the cruelty perpetrated by the New Order half a century ago. Yet of all the victims and survivors of that time, only a few have succeeded in sharing their personal and literary narratives with Putu Oka's consistency and courage. His ability to make peace with the past has given him the means to shine a clear and penetrating light on the challenges and opportunities Indonesia faces in its search for a better future. It is these qualities that make his latest work so captivating. (Ariel Heryanto)
A powerful examination of personal relationships. Challenging without being arrogant. Full of energy. The conversations come alive, we feel as though we're taking part in them. Captures attention right from the prologue. Has a go at plenty of different interest groups, but it's something real. Ha! (Yuniyanti Chuzaifah)
A work of satire with a cutting edge. The choice of words makes it not just sarcastic but also uncomfortably perceptive. Sharp and uncompromising. (AJ Susmana)
