Synopsis:
The collection of essays in this book is a reflection of the complex but intertwining interpersonal relationships of those of us who inhabit this land. It offers a glimpse into the inner world of Southeast Asia where the idea of common ownership still exists, though not necessarily articulated through the vocabulary used. The organic quality of these essays – seeing that they come from the heart and closely related to our everyday experiences, longings and anxieties – demonstrates their position as true subaltern voices, namely for those who should not be at the center of power or who hold power, but yet their lives are shaped by power – economics, politics, diplomacy. Therefore, it reflects the real life of Southeast Asian society of today.
