my life is the afterlife

From the author of Happy Stories, Mostly and Sergius Seeks Bacchus. Their first work originally written in English.

My Dream Job is a tender playground of intellect and wit where entire worlds collide: the English and Toba Batak languages; Christian and Batak mythology; colonial violence past and present. In a voice playful, daring and not pursuing legibility above all else, Pasaribu writes the ultimate eulogy for a postcolonial dream.
