  The English-language debut of Indonesia’s rising star. Compulsively readable, Beauty Is a Wound combines
history, satire, family tragedy, legend, humour, and romance in an astonishing epic novel, in which the beautiful Indo
prostitute Dewi Ayu and her four daughters are beset by every monstrosity. Kurniawan’s gleefully grotesque
hyperbole is a scathing critique of his young nation’s troubled past: the rapacious offhand greed of colonialism;
the chaotic struggle for independence; the 1965 mass murders, followed by three decades of Suharto's despotic rule.
Drawing on local sources—folk tales and the all-night shadow puppet plays, with their bawdy wit—and
inspired by Melville and Gogol, Beauty Is a Wound is passionate and ironic, exuberant and confronting. Hailed as
‘the next Pramoedya’, Eka Kurniawan is an exciting new voice in contemporary literature. Eka Kurniawan was
born in 1975 and is the author of novels, short stories, essays, movie scripts, and graphic novels. He has been
described by the Jakarta Post as ‘one of the few influential writers in Indonesia.’ Annie Tucker won a
PEN/Heim Translation Fund Award for this translation. ‘Beauty is a Wound is like nothing I’ve read
before…The multi-layered narrative reads like an old-school gothic folk tale, full of dark magic, hyperbole and
gratuitous violence.’ Guardian ‘Without a doubt the most original, imaginatively profound, and elegant
writer of fiction in Indonesia today: its brightest and most unexpected meteorite.’ New Left Review ‘A
vivacious translation of a comic but emotionally powerful Indonesian novel.’ Pen America ‘Very
striking.’ Tariq Ali ‘Upon finishing the book, the reader will have the sense of encountering not just the
history of Indonesia but its soul and spirit. This is an astounding, momentous book.’ Publishers Weekly ‘An
original and thought-provoking read.’ BookMooch ‘So sorrowful, so savage, so freaking weird...Densely
textured, complex in time scheme and epic in scope…The author’s intelligence breathes through the lines of
the page, and he is equally capable of delicacy as decadence.’ Saturday Paper ‘Beauty Is a Wound is an
astonishing work of fiction, a crazy, dream-like tale of one woman who goes to remarkable lengths in order to
survive.’ Weekend Edition ‘Beauty Is a Wound draws on history, myth and Kurniawan’s considerable
skill as a story teller to deliver an unforgettable tale...A compelling read.’ Salty Popcorn ‘Romps along
with wilful disregard for the niceties of taste and decorum. Perhaps that’s only as it should be, as one comes to
grips with aspects of Indonesian history that most often lie buried beneath a veneer of restraint and good
manners.’ ANZ Litlovers ‘Vast and ambitious…[An] impressive work which paints an evocative and
ghostly portrayal of mythical and historical times past.’ Otago Daily Times ‘A successful work, one which
most readers would enjoy as an introduction to Indonesian literature. Kurniawan’s novel taps into world
literature while keeping unique features of the writer’s homeland.’ Tony’s Reading List
