————— Bumi Manusia 📖
🖊️: Pramoedya Ananta Toer

Pertama-taman, saya mau merespon dengan “wah, wah, wah”. Sepertinya ini menjadi novel hisfic pertama saya yang saya baca cukup singkat. Lebih dari 500 halaman saya selesaikan hanya dalam 5 hari di tengah kesibukan bekerja. 

Bumi manusia sangat apik dan candu. Kalau ada banyak waktu, bawaannya gak mau berhenti dibaca. Novel berlatar belakang penjajahan kolonial Belanda, menceritakan tokoh ikonik Minke dengan kecerdasan dan perjuangnya dalam menghadapi berbagai tantangan hidup. Gak luput pula tokoh Nyai Ontosoroh yang menjadi perhatian utama saya. Perempuan beranak 2 yang menjadi simbol perlawanan dalam cerita ini. 

Namun ada sedikit kekurangan dalam penggunaan bahasa karena menyesuaikan dengan latar waktu dan tempat. Secara pribadi dapat saya maklumi.

See: http://inidisini.wordpress.com/2011/07/30/books-ive-read-about-indonesia/

This first book in a "quartet" introduces the intriguing Minke, a Javanese youth attending an elite Dutch high school at the end of the 1800s in east Java. You don't need to know anything about Indonesia past or present to enjoy this novel and Minke's entry into adulthood at a pivotal time in his people's history.
