The Garden of Delights & Other Tales

By Azhari; Translated by George A. Fowler and Jutta Wurm
The Lontar Foundation

Azhari’s reimagined stories of Aceh in the 17th century encompass a garden of extraordinary beauty, a turtle with chin hairs, pirates in the waters of the Malacca Straits, and so much more. The author’s enthralling storytelling, reminiscent of the 1001 Nights, makes you, the reader, ever so impatient for what comes next.

Azhari (Author)

Azhari was born in Aceh and began to write in primary school. He is a co-founder of Sekolah Menulis Dôkarim, a school for creative writing. As an author, he holds fast to the conviction that literature is better able to shed light on life’s realities than even the mass media.
