Buru Quartet

It's been a hectic week of assignments submission since the last time i read the notable works of a legendary author, Pramoedya Ananta Toer. So, I thought it would be interesting to do some reviews over his writings, over the Buru Quartets.




The Buru Quartet is an epic tetralogy written by the magnificent-head Pram during his 14 years in Buru prison. It is divided into four volume, This Earth of Mankinds, Child of All Nations, Footsteps and House of Glass. Sorry if I did a mis-arranged of the sequence in the picture :'')

Those books belong to my idealist yet strict Daddy. He said that I was lucky to be able to read Pram's valuable books, For, back to the '70s and '80s time Pram's writings were fell out of the favour of the colonial and the government. So, Pram faced censorship in Indonesia during the pre-reformation era.
