Well, guys. To know Uncle Pram's personal background reminds me of a quote from "Inventory" by Dorothy Parker,..Here is "Three'll be the things i have till i die,:Laughter and hope, and a sock in the eye."
Uncle Pram was totally a nationalist man for me,. He could have escaped from Indonesia (new era) but he didn't. He helps youngsters like me to open eyes. I adore his writing. He is the only writer now (for me) that links me to a past.
I mourn over his passing away too.
Btw, If you adore "The Buru Tetralogy/Quartet", let me advise you to read the other book of his. It's "SANG PEMULA" :Indonesian language that means "The beginner" I can't tell whether it's already translated into English or no but guys, u Check it.
regards.

I think Sang Pemula is on sale in English as "The Pioneer." I haven't read it. The Buru Quartet is terrific (at least the first three books), and so is The Girl From the Coast.
