Produktbeschreibung

Violence, money, and melodrama are the volatile ingredients of The Rape of Sukreni. Written in the 1930s by A.A. Panji Tisna, Soekreni Gadis Bali was published in 1947. Sukreni is a modern Indonesian classic concerned with the Balinese-Hindu notion of karma, while its main thematic thrust is in fact the impact of modern commerce on Balinese society. Modern commerce, the author argues, is animated by a morality which robs people of their humanity. Even more telling today than it was when it was written, The Rape of Sukreni offers a unique and dark insider's view of the island's future that violently challenges the conventional image of Bali as a honeyed paradise filled with artists and happy tourists.
