Review

By Sophie Masson (Armidale, New South Wales, Australia). September 4, 2004.

“Absorbing, informative, and entertaining.”

Indonesia is one of the most fascinating places in the world, with a rich, attractive, diverse and complex culture, and wonderful stories. Its rich trove of folktales is not known well enough in the West—but here’s a book that will go some way to filling the gap. Murti Bunanta, an extraordinary and gifted writer who has published many wonderful books of retellings from the folklore of her country, here presents a great snapshot of Indonesia for young and old. She starts by background pieces on the history, geography and material culture of the huge archipelago and its very diverse people, and then retells a whole bunch of folktales, in thematic groups—for instance, stories about rice, stories about independent princesses, ungrateful children, legends of places, and more. The book is illustrated with line drawings and color photographs and is beautifully produced. A must for everyone interested in learning more about an extraordinary country.

“A must for storytellers.”

This is a gem for a book with collections of tales, many of whom have never been written down before. This is a real treasure for anyone interested in Asian folklore. It’s especially useful for storytellers as part from the stories, extra information about the country is included. Kudos to the author and editor for making this available in English for more to enjoy and appreciate the richness of Indonesian thought and tales.

“Thanks to Libraries Unlimited for opening a window to traditions little known in the U.S. and countering often grim headlines from Indonesia.”

Six thematic groups are printed: Jealous and Envious Brothers and Sisters; Stories of Independent Princesses; Stories of Ungrateful Children; Story about Rice; Stories of Place Legends; and Stories of How Things Come to be. All levels.”

By The Jakarta Post

“Indonesian Folktales is worth reading—and keeping—for those who want to broaden their knowledge on traditional Indonesian culture. It is hoped that this kind of literature will reach a wide readership through publishing and literary discussions to preserve Indonesia’s heritage.”

By Story Bag

“Readers will be delighted with such a fresh and interesting collection of tales, many never before published, even in Indonesian. The extra materials enhance the understanding of each story and place in its proper cultural context. Impeccable documented.”
