Matahari:

Impressions of the Siamese-Malayan Jungle

-

Hans Morgenthaler

Matahari means 'sun' in Malay. It gives the power of growth to the virgin forest. The author made his way through the Mediterranean and on to India - Siamese, Chinese, Malays, Buddhism and the tropical virgin forest are symbols of the other worlds which were key to his young life. He provides a vivid account of his journey through the jungle while both exposed to and shaded from the light of sun. 240 pages.
