Rendition In Favor Of Books Ziarah: Sebuah Novel

It's not easy to assign number on a piece of literature like this. In conclusion, however: Is this book good? Dear God, yes.

What appeals me the most of this book isn't the architecture of the sentences, but the characters. Iwan Simatupang managed to create a mystical character around which events revolved, in a way that is so breathtaking, bold and blatant. He orchestrated equal mystery for the supporting characters, even the smallest ones, we can't help but wondering what happened in their fictional lives; every single one of them. The plot itself moves in wave-like manner; withdrawing, then pushing forward, then surging forth erratically. By the end of the book, you'll wonder what the damn hell you just read, whether you like it or not, and marvel in the stupefaction you're left with for days.

I recommend this for readers who can appreciate great things they can't understand, and people who are fond of pondering over sketchy fiction.

Weigh Up About Books Ziarah: Sebuah Novel

Suka dengan idenya yg cukup 'aneh' di jaman di mana buku ini pertama kali terbit. Seorang suami yang menziarahi kuburan istrinya yang sangat dicintainya. Dan semua problematika yang muncul dari tindakannya ternyata berdampak luas bagi lingkungan dan masyarakatnya. Mungkin genre ini kemudian yang melahirkan realisme magis dalam kesusatraan indonesia berikutnya. Perenungan dan perjalanan hidup sang tokoh seolah berkelindan dalam berbagai imajinasi dan pengembaraan spirituil. Sebuah buku penting

"Istri saya telah mati, kata orang. Itu saya terima sejauh mati berarti tak ada, tiada. Yang sendiri berarti ada. Yaitu, adanya tiada itu."Keindahan yang membingungkan. Membuat saya pusing, geleng-geleng, angguk-angguk, sedih, gelisah, senyum-senyum, cekikikan, bertanya-tanya. Pada dasarnya saya ga ngerti apa yang barusan saya baca. Tapi suka!Pasti dibaca lagi lain kali. Mudah-mudahan jadi ngerti.

The last few pages makes me cry. Semacam menahan-nahan perasaan sejak awal membaca, lalu merasa absurd di tengah-tengah, dan lalu pertahanan ambrol di bagian terakhir. Its absurdly beautiful read. Way ahead of its time.

106 - 2019Ini kali pertama saya baca bukunya Iwan Simatupang. Jelas ini bukan buku yang mudah untuk dicerna, tapi bahasanya mengesankan. Sungguh menarik mengikuti cerita Bekas Pelukis yang dituturkan.Tidak ada nama tokoh dengan cara bercerita yang 'aneh', membaca bukunya ini gak perlu cepat-cepat, biar bisa dilumat dengan nikmat. Tiap langkahnya adalah dia yang ziarah pada kemanusiaan.

Aku suka penutupnya. Setiap langkah adalah ziarah. Pada kemanusiaan.

Reading this truly was a delightful surprise! I never heard of the novel, writer (yes, sorry for my limited knowledge on Indonesian literature and writers), even more its story. So, as more I turned the pages everything became more and more interesting. I didn't expect it to be so absurd, yet so funny and philosophical at the same time! I love the subtle criticism in many parts, the contradiction (one of the main characters really hates snobbism, but the novel story is a bit snob in itself i
