   HA ! I betcha Achmad Sudarsono would know.

   Pramoedya is a great fan of Achmad Sudarsono.

   There’s also this - http://members5.boardhost.com/Pramoedya/msg/141.html and the reply http://members5.boardhost.com/Pramoedya/msg/142.html although it’s a few years old.

   Buku ini masih bisa didapat melalui toko buku Kalam atau toko buku Teater Utan Kayu.

   although it’s a few years old.

   Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Hopefully, the shop is still there and they have not sold out the Hoakiau book.

   Thanks a lot everyone! I have been frantically applying all of your suggestions. Trawling the mazes of book markets in Jakarta during the rainy season is no fun (a shout out to all the ‘abang-abang’ in Pasar Senen!), but I won’t stop till I complete my collection. Fingers crossed for a victorious search….

   Hello Hannah,

   Any success thus far?

   I hope you’ve succeeded.

   

   Cheers!

   I’m still on it … I’ve tried the libraries (UI, CSIS, and Freedom Institute), and they said they’ll get back to me. But I’ve got a good feeling for the one I haven’t tried, the one in Utan Kayu, because that’s where Pramoedya used to live!

    Not that it helps you Hannah but I just noticed this in my feed reader.

    Pramoedya Ananta Toer’s 1960 anti-racialist polemic and history of the Chinese in Indonesia is now available in an English translation by Max Lane.

    Pramoedya’s 195 page book is accompanied by 4 contemporary essays by other writers. These are:

    “Pramoedya: Defiant to the end” by K.S. Jomo. Jomo is U.N. Assistant Secretary General for Economic Development and was Professor at the University of Malaya until late 2004. He was also founder of Wira Karya publishers, a Malaysian publisher which published the works of Pramoedya Ananta Toer.

    “Prameodya Ananta Toer: In Memoriam” by Leo Ou-Fan Lee. Lee is Professor of Humanities at the Chinese University of Hong Kong.

    “Pramoedya, Racialism and Socialism” by Max Lane

    “Strangers who are not Foreign” by Sumit Mandal. Mandal is an historian at the Universtii Kebangsaan Malaysia

    The book is easiest ordered from Select Books in Singapore.

    orders@selectbooks.com.sg

    From Max Lane.

    Coba di Palasari, di Bandung. Biasanya disana ada buku-buku yang di pasaran jarang diperoleh dari toko buku lainnya.

    You might as well give a shot. Good luck.
