This English translation was published in 2015 and along with Beauty is a Wound was his first work to be translated. Beauty is a Wound was Longlisted for the 2016 Booker International Prize
Eka Kurniawan writes beautifully, and his prose sparkles and has an easy flow to it. Comparisons to Gabriel Garcia Marquez would not be off the mark, and Man Tiger is both caustic and beautiful, with dark stories of Margio's unhappy family and its abusive father grounding the book's magical components.
I included this great little book of my list of Best SE Asian Novels to read..
