Kelas Keberagaman
Buku ini berasal dari inisiatif JALAN + TULIS + BERBAGI dari kolaboraksi antara Tim Pengabdian Masyarakat Hubungan Internasional FISIP Universitas Brawijaya, komunitas Dayani Sasana Aksara, Ngalam Peace Leader dan YIPC Malang. Kolaboraksi ini diselenggarakan dalam kegiatan Kelas Keberagaman, yang tiap pesertanya mendapati pengalaman perjalanan, dan kemudian menuliskan pengalaman tersebut dalam sebuah tulisan. Tulisan-tulisan itu kemudian dikompilasi menjadi satu buku ini yang bisa dibaca bersama. Selamat membaca!
Beauty
Beauty - in both name and appearance - is a twenty-year-old Bangladeshi, back in England having disgraced her family by fleeing an abusive arranged marriage. Forced onto the jobseeker's treadmill and under extreme domestic pressure, she cracks and runs away. Her encounters with officialdom, fellow claimants, and strangers in the city streets, complicated by the restrictions and comfort of her language and culture, place her at the mercy of such unlikely helpers as Mark, a friendly, Staffordshire bull terrier-breeding exoffender, and Peter, a middle-class underachiever on the rebound from a bitter relationship. With determination and good humour, Beauty moves ever closer to making her choice between family duty and personal freedom. All the while, however, her brothers are searching for her across town. Can she make the choice herself, before she's forced to? A sharply rendered, compassionate and challenging portrait of a fragmented, multicultural urban England.
