Winner of the 2023 PEN Translation Prize Winner of the 2023 NSW Premier’s Translation Prize An eerie, alienating, yet comic and profoundly sympathetic short story collection about Americans in America by one of Indonesia’s most prominent writers, now in an English translation for its fortieth anniversary, with a foreword by Intan Paramaditha A Penguin Classic In these seven stories of People from Bloomington, our peculiar narrators find themselves in the most peculiar of circumstances and encounter the most peculiar of people. Set in Bloomington, Indiana, where the author lived as a graduate student in the 1970s, this is far from the idyllic portrait of small-town America. Rather, sectioned into apartment units and rented rooms, and gridded by long empty streets and distances traversable only by car, it’s a place where the solitary can all too easily remain solitary; where people can at once be obsessively curious about others, yet fail to form genuine connections with anyone. The characters feel their loneliness acutely and yet deliberately estrange others. Budi Darma paints a realist world portrayed through an absurdist frame, morbid and funny at the same time. For decades, Budi Darma has influenced and inspired many writers, artists, filmmakers, and readers in Indonesia, yet his stories transcend time and place. With The People from Bloomington, Budi Darma draws us to a universality recognized by readers around the world—the cruelty of life and the difficulties that people face in relating to one another while negotiating their own identities. The stories are not about “strangeness” in the sense of culture, race, and nationality. Instead, they are a statement about how everyone, regardless of nationality or race, is strange, and subject to the same tortures, suspicions, yearnings, and peculiarities of the mind.

"Janganlah mengurusi kepentingan orang lain dan janganlah mempunyai keinginan tahu tentang orang lain. Hanya dengan jalan demikian, kita dapat tenang." Sejak kali pertama terbit, tujuh cerita yang dihimpun dalam antologi Orang-Orang Bloomington sukses memukau pembaca lintas generasi melalui permasalahan yang diangkat-emosi-emosi terdalam manusia. Manusia dengan segala dinamika kehidupannya dikisahkan melalui sudut pandang orang pertama-menjadikan suasana batin tokoh-tokohnya tergali dalam. Cerita-ceritanya tampak sederhana, tapi menyuguhkan sisi lain kehidupan nyata yang kompleks dan kelam. Dengan cara yang tidak biasa, Budi Darma mengungkap konflik antarmanusia yang lazim kita hadapi dalam keseharian-prasangka, kesepian, kedengkian. Semua berpadu menjadi satu formula kisah yang realistis, menyentuh, bahkan cenderung menampar. Melalui Orang-Orang Bloomington, Budi Darma berhasil menyabet penghargaan S. E. A. Write Award 1984 dari Pemerintah Thailand. Cerpen-cerpen yang menginspirasi ini kami hadirkan kembali untuk memperkenalkannya kepada pembaca muda, sekaligus mengobati kerinduan para pembaca setia Budi Darma.

Amid the forested hills of southern Indiana stands one of America's most beautiful college campuses. Indiana University Bloomington: America's Legacy Campus, the new edition, returns the reader to this architectural gem and cultural touchstone. Revised and updated to include new buildings and features of campus life, it is a must have for any Hoosier. The IU Bloomington campus, rich in architectural tradition, harmonious in building scale and materials, and surrounded by natural beauty, stands today as a testimony to careful campus planning and committed stewardship. Planning principles adopted in the very early stages of campus development have been protected, enhanced, and faithfully preserved, resulting in an institution that can truly be called America's Legacy Campus. Lavishly illustrated and brimming with fascinating details, this book tells the story of Indiana University—a tale not only of buildings, architecture, and growth, but of the talented, dedicated people who brought the buildings to life. Completely updated with new buildings and an epilogue, and now even more lavishly illustrated, this new edition is a lasting tribute to the treasure that is Indiana University Bloomington.

"Good places are shaped by the gifts of nature and by the labor and love of many people over generations. The city of Bloomington, tucked away in the forested hills of southern Indiana, is one such place. Three of us who have worked here, played here, reared children here, and set our roots right down to the limestone bedrock made this book to chronicle and celebrate our home town." Thus begins Bloomington Past and Present, a volume that anyone who has lived in--or even just passed through--this memorable city will want to have and pass down to future generations of Bloomingtonians. Photojournalist Will Counts gathered some of his own photographs taken over a long career, along with photographs by more than a dozen other fine artists. Some drawn from archives, some taken recently, these images capture the city's people and places. The essay "Loving This Place" by Scott Russell Sanders leads the reader on a walk through Bloomington today, evoking the feel of the city, its human fabric and natural setting. In "Old Times and New Times in Bloomington," James H. Madison writes about what Bloomington once was, tracing changes in the community from the 19th century on through today's complex and vibrant civic scene. "Across from the fire station and post office rises the limestone mass of First Methodist, the grandest of our churches, one known for fine music and powerful preaching. In general, as you move west from here to the far fringes of Bloomington, the preaching becomes hotter and hotter, ranging from Baptists and African Methodist Episcopalians on through various brands of evangelicals, apostolics, and Pentecostals; and as you move east from here the preaching generally becomes cooler, ranging from Presbyterians and Episcopalians, through Catholics and Lutherans, on out to the Quakers, who keep their silence." --Scott Russell Sanders "There were Bloomington residents at the beginning of the twenty-first century who had heard the Metropolitan Opera perform Aida in the University Auditorium in 1942; given their sex histories to Alfred Kinsey in the 1940s; subjected their teeth to the stannous fluoride tests that produced Crest toothpaste in the early 1950s; listened to Gene McCarthy and Bobby Kennedy explain why the Vietnam War was wrong in 1968; heard not only Elvis but also Bill Monroe, the Supremes, and Ray Charles; participated eagerly in a new curbside recycling program begun in the early 1990s; bought sushi and tofu at the grocery store; and listened to the Dalai Lama more than once. The small town in southern Indiana was hardly isolated or ordinary." --James H. Madison

Young people across America were formed and transformed in the 1960s by sex, drugs, rock and roll, peace and love, war and assassination, triumph and loss. The generation’s apex in 1967 was ripe with self-discovery and liberation in the heady Summer of Love. The next year brought a summer of hate as we mourned Martin and Bobby. Race riots raged. Friends were killed in Vietnam. Our hopes died in the streets of Chicago. This is the true story of one group of midwestern baby boomers led down the rabbit hole by a rebellious young teacher. They descended in innocence and hit bottom when good people were busted—in Bloomington.
