When young western tourist Neil meets Indonesian girl Yossy on Kuta beach and decides to settle permanently in Bali he knows his life is about to change forever … but will it be the paradise he is yearning for?

Dalam novel Senja di Jakarta, Mochtar Lubis menyayat kehidupan politik dan sosial di Jakarta selama kurun waktu 1950-an. Dengan kejernihan yang menyeritakan ia berhasil membuka arus-arus kemiskinan, korupsi dan kejahatan yang mengalir dengan deras di bawah permukaan kehidupan setiap hari di Jakarta. Meskipun novel ini berkisah tentang kehidupan di Jakarta, namun seandainya pembaca mengikuti novel ini dengan seksama, maka apa yang diceritakan melukiskan berbagai kekuatan yang mempengaruhi, membentuk dan mendorong kehidupan mereka yang kaya, miskin, kaum politik dan kiriminal, kaum intelektual dan juga mereka yang berpindah tempat dari desa ke kota besar. Suryono, sang tokoh utama, seorang pegawai negeri yang masih berumur muda, merupakan sebuah titik utama yang digunakan penulis untuk menggambarkan betapa tali-tali yang menjerat banyak anggota masyarakat dari berbagai kelompok untuk melakukan beragam perbuatan yang menekan dan menindas rakyat kecil, dan membuat yang kaya bertambah kaya, dan yang berkuasa tambah berkuasa. Fenomena yang amat sering terjadi dalam negeri-negeri yang belum lama merdeka. Tema novel Senja di Jakarta masih relevan dengan Indonesia saat ini. Karenanya, permenungan dan penggambaran realitias politik dan sosial di dalamnya masih terasa aktual dan relevan.

The history of Jakarta, capital city of Indonesia, is a fascinating tapestry of religions, cultures, habits, and lifestyles woven by many peoples from within its own nation, within the region, and beyond the seas. Old Jakarta explains the reasons that attracted these people and assesses the influences that they wielded on the city. It traces Jakarta's growth from a sleepy coastal trading center, through its gradual expansion as a spice center, to its enviable position as "The Queen City of the East," and describes its path to independence. In the last chapter, Maya Jayapal compares the city as it was in the past, through its remaining historical sites, with the burgeoning city it is now.

After Suharto gained power in Indonesia in the mid-1960s, he stayed as the country's president for more than three decades, helped by the powerful military, hefty foreign aid and support from a coterie of cronies. A pivotal business backer for his New Order government was Liem Sioe Liong, a migrant from China, who arrived in Java in 1938. A combination of the Suharto connection, serendipity and personal charm propelled him to become the wealthiest tycoon in Southeast Asia. This is the story of how Liem built the Salim Group, a conglomerate that in its heyday controlled Indonesia's largest non-state bank, the country's dominant cement producer and flour mill, as well as the world's biggest maker of instant noodles. The book features exclusive input from Liem, who died in 2012, and his youngest son, Anthony Salim. It traces the founder's life and the group's symbiosis with Suharto, his generals and family. After the tumultuous 1997-98 Asian financial crisis sparked Suharto's fall and a backlash against the strongman's cronies, Anthony staved off the crushing of the debt-laden group. Told in a journalistic style, the story of the Salim Group provides insights into Suharto's New Order. For business executives, students and anyone with an interest in Southeast Asia's largest economy, the volume makes a valuable contribution towards understanding the country's modern history.

A Certain Age is an unconventional, evocative work of history and a moving reflection on memory, modernity, space, time, and the limitations of traditional historical narratives. Rudolf Mrázek visited Indonesia throughout the 1990s, recording lengthy interviews with elderly intellectuals in and around Jakarta. With few exceptions, they were part of an urban elite born under colonial rule and educated at Dutch schools. From the early twentieth century, through the late colonial era, the national revolution, and well into independence after 1945, these intellectuals injected their ideas of modernity, progress, and freedom into local and national discussion. When Mrázek began his interviews, he expected to discuss phenomena such as the transition from colonialism to postcolonialism. His interviewees, however, wanted to share more personal recollections. Mrázek illuminates their stories of the past with evocative depictions of their late-twentieth-century surroundings. He brings to bear insights from thinkers including Walter Benjamin, Bertold Brecht, Le Corbusier, and Marcel Proust, and from his youth in Prague, another metropolis with its own experience of passages and revolution. Architectural and spatial tropes organize the book. Thresholds, windowsills, and sidewalks come to seem more apt as descriptors of historical transitions than colonial and postcolonial, or modern and postmodern. Asphalt roads, homes, classrooms, fences, and windows organize movement, perceptions, and selves in relation to others. A Certain Age is a portal into questions about how the past informs the present and how historical accounts are inevitably partial and incomplete.
