Home by Leila S. Chudori
A sweeping, multigenerational novel that follows Indonesian exiles in Paris and their families back home, tracing how the 1965 anti-communist purge and decades of authoritarian rule reshape identity, memory and belonging. Through correspondence, journalism and intimate recollections, the narrative examines the pain of displacement, the persistence of political commitment and the fraught idea of return as Indonesia moves toward reform in the late 1990s. Ultimately it shows how history’s violences reverberate across generations and complicate the fragile promise of coming home.
