The first full-size collection of his short stories to appear in English, \u003cb\u003eAll That Is Gone\u003c\/b\u003e draws from the author’s own experiences in Indonesia to depict characters trying to make sense of a war-torn culture haunted by colonialism, among them an eight-year-old girl soon to be married off by her parents for money and an idealistic young soldier who witnesses the savage beating of a man accused of being a spy. Though violence and brutality pervade these tales, there is present throughout a profound sense of compassion—an extraordinary combination of despair and hope that gives \u003cb\u003eAll That Is Gone\u003c\/b\u003e rare power and beauty.All That Is GonePreface\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAll That Is Gone\u003cbr\u003eInem\u003cbr\u003eIn Twilight Born\u003cbr\u003eCircumcision\u003cbr\u003eRevenge\u003cbr\u003eIndependence Day\u003cbr\u003eAcceptance\u003cbr\u003eThe Rewards Of Marriage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTranslator's Note\u003c\/p\u003e\"[Toer is] so great that we instantly feel we’ve known him—and he us—all our lives.\" —\u003cb\u003eUSA Today\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Simply, elegantly traces an emerging political consciousness...
