The final days of World War II serve as the backdrop for this novel by Ismail Marahimin. Fighting has not reached the small Sumatran village of Taratakbuluh, but the quiet, tradition-bound way of life in this remote outpost on the jungles edge has nonetheless been transformed, for the Japanese have chosen it as the site of a prisoner-of-war camp for Dutch internees. "And the War is Over" is the tensely drawn story of the people of Taratakbuluh and of the Japanese soldiers, Dutch prisoners, and Javanese workers who become, briefly but significantly, a part of their lives. The novel centers on a plot by some of the Dutch prisoners to escape into the jungle but the drama of this planned escape yields to the even more dramatic tension of the human relationships that punctuate the novel.

Winner of the prestigious Pegasus Prize for Literature, And the War Is Over is a taut novel set in and around an Indonesian village as news of Japan's surrender gradually makes its way to her far-flung army. War has transformed the quiet Sumatran village of Teratakbuluh, bringing with it the officious, often incomprehensible members of the Japanese army and a camp where Dutch internees are put to hard labor. Some of the Dutch are plotting escape, and the Sumatrans in the village are divided on whether to help or to avoid involvement. The Japanese officer Lieutenant Ose struggles with his conscience -- how to handle the love he feels both for his Javanese servant and his wife, who has betrayed him for a powerful general, and how to cope with the impending end of a war he never wanted to be involved in. As the Dutch escape and the news of surrender loom nearer, tensions between the Japanese and the Sumatrans, within the Dutch camp and within the life of the village, explode into a final, heartbreaking act of violence.Taal: Engels;Afmetingen: 11x216x140 mm;Gewicht: 249,00 gram;Verschijningsdatum: juni 2011;ISBN10: 9798083768;ISBN13: 9789798083761; Engelstalig | Paperback | 2011.
