Yang Lahir dan Berakhir di Teluk Palu
Hidup tampak lurus dan jernih bagi Ziya, sampai akhirnya gempa-tsunami menyapu Palu dengan paksa. Tiga anggota keluarganya hilang. Di pengungsian, ibunya tenggelam dalam diam yang sukar ditembus, dan tanpa pembela terkuatnya, Ziya harus menghadapi pelecehan seksual dan stigma buruk dari banyak orang. Bencana itu, bagi Ziya, juga bagi perempuan lainnya, bukan sekadar hilangnya sanak dan hilangnya rumah. Bencana itu punya lapis-lapis yang lebih dalam: buyarnya orientasi yang disusul oleh lunturnya kesadaran akan eksistensi diri. Dengan segala puing yang tersisa pada dirinya, Ziya naik ke atas perahu, menyambut lautan, mencari tempat tenang bagi ruh dan dagingnya. * Seri Novela Katastrofe adalah kisah-kisah bertema kebencanaan di Indonesia yang dikurasi dalam Sayembara Novela Basabasi 2022. Di dalam kisah-kisah ini, manusia dalam bencana tidak melulu dilabeli sebagai “yang terdampak”. Mereka bergerak pula sebagai “yang berdampak”, “yang ingin memahami”, dan terutama sebagai “yang ingin menerima”.
Colorful
A beloved and bestselling classic in Japan, this groundbreaking tale of a dead soul who gets a second chance is perfect for readers of The Midnight Library. "Congratulations, you've won the lottery!" shouts the angel Prapura to a formless soul. The soul hasn't been kicked out of the cycle of rebirth just yet—he's been given a second chance. He must recall the biggest mistake of his past life while on 'homestay' in the body of fourteen-year-old Makoto Kobayashi, who has just committed suicide. It looks like Makoto doesn't have a single friend, and his family don't seem to care about him at all. But as the soul begins to live Makoto's life on his own terms, he grows closer to the family and the people around him, and sees their true colors more clearly, shedding light on Makoto's misunderstandings. Since its initial release over twenty years ago, Colorful has become a part of the literary canon, not only in Japan—where it has sold over a million copies—but around the world, having been translated into several different languages. Now, Eto Mori's beloved classic is finally available in English.
