These short stories are
eyewitness account from the frontlines of the War of Independence, the
period of time where Indonesians declared war against the Dutch forces
(the latter seek to regain control of the archipelago post World War
II's defeat of the Japanese). The stories are more about the personal
struggles of the individuals involved in the battlefields, not the
heroic elements of war. The stories also reflect the author's personal
experience having to join his schoolmates in the trenches in their early
teens without his father's approval, being reminded of his little
sister at home, and the painful memories of losing his friends in the
line of fire.
