Nyemedi.
Menjalani itu tak sebatas berbilang jam atau hari, tetapi terus menerus, bulan hingga tahun. Menjalani itu sadar kalau sedang berjalan dengan suatu tujuan. bukan berjalan-jalan yang tak jelas apa yang dituju. Menjalani itu perlu keberanian untuk mencapai tujuan dan juga keberanian atas segala konsekuensinya. Menjalani itu perlu kebenaran untuk menyadari kekeliruan. Menjalani itu perlu mengakui, menerima dan melepaskan segala yang terjadi agar tidak membebani diri. Menjalani itu berarti memahami dan mengalami proses. Sehingga mampu memprediksi dan mengontrol jalan yang dilalui. Menjalani itu juga berarti memaknai tiap langkah yang dijalani hingga mampu memberi arti, mengabstraksi, bukan sekedar dan sebatas testimoni.
Beat Up!
Covid-19 belum tampak hendak sirna. Kita semua masih harus berada dalam situasi pandemi ini, entah berapa lama lagi. Bukan hanya kesehatan yang harus dijaga, tapi keseimbangan kehidupan lainnya. Pendidikan anak, biaya operasional rumah tangga, cicilan rumah, pengeluaran lain yang tidak terduga, semuanya perlu dipertimbangkan sementara penghasilan mungkin tidak lagi mencukupi. Apa yang bisa dilakukan? Menyerah? Mungkin bagi sebagian orang, tapi tidak bagi para perempuan yang tergabung dalam komunitas penulis ini.

Hanns Heinz Ewers - the Spider
"When the student of medicine, Richard Bracquemont, decided to move into room #7 of the small Hotel Stevens, Rue Alfred Stevens (Paris 6), three persons had already hanged themselves from the cross-bar of the window in that room on three successive Fridays." The last of them was a police sergeant who had volunteered to sleep in the room to learn what happens that might explain the hangings, and somehow he met with the same fate. The medical student was aware of these incidents, but..."There was one detail about which he knew nothing because neither the police inspector nor any of the eyewitnesses had mentioned it to the press. It was only later, after what happened to the medical student, that anyone remembered that when the police removed Sergeant Charles-Maria Chaumi�'s body from the window cross-bar a large black spider crawled from the dead man's open mouth. A hotel porter flicked it away, exclaiming, 'Ugh, another of those damned creatures.'"Thus begins this bizarre mystery of "The Spider."
Tambera
It is 1600 and Dutch merchants are welcomed to the Banda islands. But, in the space of three years, Bandanese society changes as its people succumb to the temptations of Western materialism--a process that leads inevitably to social dissension and, finally, to rebellion. Written during the dying days of the Netherlands East Indies, Tambera is Utuy Tatang Sontani's most seminal work. In looking back to the beginnings of colonialism in the Indies, Sontani anticipates many of the philosophical and moral challenges that still confronted the nascent republic of Indonesia, three hundred and fifty years later.
