Crossing Boundaries: New Voices from Indonesia

Works in Translation (by Issue)


Oct 17, 2016, ABC Radio National


Crossing Boundaries: New Voices from Indonesia is an anthology of Indonesian short stories.

The collection contains stories from across the archipelago—from Bali, Java, Sulawesi and Sumatra—written by some of the country’s most exciting writers. The authors featured include rising literary star Eka Kurniawan, and emerging voices, such as Wa Ode Wulan Ratna and Uda Agus.

Each story has been selected for its ability to convey a vivid sense of Indonesian society today—these are stories of city life, love and conflict in small villages, and fantastical goings on.
