What Does Being an Indonesian Mean?

I read this collection of essays a *long* while ago (maybe in 2012), but I still remember how well it questioned the concept of identity and what being an Indonesian entails. Would love to take a peek into it again soon!

Published in English as 'Indonesia Etc.' (unfortunately not available here), this book takes you to plunge into Indonesia's cultural, social, and political issues. It defies mainstream stories covered by big media and peeks into the vastly non-Javanese aspects of this beautiful country. Elizabeth Pisani took the 'travel memoir' approach and took account of every details passionately—making this a very engaging story to read on your long travels. She dubbed Indonesia as a 'bad boyfriend'—one who excites you but also angers you with its flaws, which can't be more accurate!
