Supernova is rumored being translated by Harry Aveling, some indonesian blogs reported it has been published already, but I really cant find any info about it :/. I too, am interested with the english version of this novel.

Colson, I thought I have added you in my friend list, you have facebook account under name Jerry van den Brink aren’t you? You are free to read my notes

Thanks. Just for egoistic reasons I would like to read your reviews on a regular basis.

Yeah, I of course have the ( translated) Ayu Utami’s novels. But though you wrote a pretty enthusiastic review, I’m not too eager to purchase Dewi Lestari’s latest book even if there would have been an English translation. Bu I would like to purchase “Supernova” which, unfortunately isn’t available in English…

The main question this post raises to me however is: how to become a friend to read your English short stories…..

to be honest, it’s inspired by song “god is a girl”. the song itself is rather crappy, but I like how it breaks the traditional image of God.

IDR 100 million? Wow!~ Great!

About the next novel, still, I just wondered, why you took a little girl to be the main character? Since people always believes that God is a man
