In the Small Hours of the Night: An Anthology of Sundanese Short Stories (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9786026978905)

In the Small Hours of the Night, a collection of 24 Sundanese short stories, is the first collection of its kind ever to be translated into English. The stories deal with a variety of subjects, ranging from everyday-politics where corruption is rife to stories of village life and the trials faced by villagers forced to confront the waves of modernization. There are also stories which deal with the significant historical events of the last seventy years and finally--as one might expect, since the Sundanese are known for the frankness with which they describe sexual attraction--there are also stories of love.
