About the Author
Having published more than 30 books since the 1980s, Seno Gumira Ajidarma is one of Indonesia’s most prolific authors. As a novelist, essayist, and short story writer, Seno’s work often both document everyday life and criticize contemporary social, cultural, and political conditions. He has long been a consistent advocate of free speech and freedom of publication, writing about sensitive issues, including military violence in East Timor, the so-called “mysterious killings” in East Java during the early 1980s, and instability in Aceh. Seno’s credo is “When journalism is silenced, literature must speak. Because while journalism speaks with facts, literature speaks with truth.”
