Ikhtiar yang Tak Benar-Benar

Juna is a perfectionist writer, the self-styled king of all procrastinators, who never manages to finish the historical novel he is writing. As the novel goes on it becomes clear that he puts off almost everything else in his life too, and his marriage to his wife Kin comes under strain. Told in many voices, full of chaotic inner monologue and wordplay, the novel satirises the creative process and takes in family life, the urban middle class and an age of information overload in which people forget how to find meaning.
