Abdullah Harahap’s Death

ABDULLAH HARAHAP, a writer of horror fiction, died #onthisday in 2015. His obituary (in Indonesian) written by Ugoran Prasad appeared in @jakartabeat July 18, 2015—the day after what would have been his 72nd birthday. His name may not ring a bell among young Indonesians, but ask anyone who was in their teens in the 1970s, and chances are they can remember feeling terrified after reading one of his best-selling horror-mystery novels.

About Us

For short, our main feature, the writer's directory, provides a way for writers to find one another, but more importantly, the resources provided make it easy for event hosts—especially for international event hosts—literary organizers, arts administrators, librarians, booksellers, and readers to get in touch with writers. It's a HOME FOR INDONESIAN WRITERS. We strive to break down the language barriers that have prevented Indonesian books or literature from becoming more widespread.
