Confrontation, Paperback / softback Book

Confrontation Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Adi loves his life in the Kampung: climbing the ancient banyan tree, watching ten-cent movies with his friends, fetcing worms for the village bomoh.

The residents of Kampung Pak Buyung may not have many material goods, but their simple lives are happy.

However, looming on the horizon are political upheaval, race riots, gang wars and the Konfrontasi with Indonesia.

Mohamed Latiff Mohamed, three-time winner of the Singapore Literature Prize, brilliantly dramatises the period of uncertainty and change in the years leading up to Singapore's merger with Malaya.
