The Birdwoman's Palate has an intriguing premise and for the first couple of chapters I was thinking this would probably be a four star book. It tells the story about Aruna, an Indonesian woman in her mid-thirties who's a bit of a foodie and is working for a government agency during an outbreak of avian flu.
As it became clearer that there was no real plot arc or structure to the book, and that the avian flu subplot was an odd McGuffin, I revised my opinion to perhaps a 3 out of 5. After all, th..more

Kalau disuruh menyimpulkan novel ini dalam satu kalimat, saya akan tulis: 'Cerita tentang Aruna, seorang wanita yang melakukan wisata kuliner sambil menjalankan tugas kantornya untuk menyelidiki masalah flu burung'.

Oh how I very much wanted this book to be better than it was.
Note how that doesn't say I didn't enjoy it, because I did, but there's really no denying that it's a hot mess of a novel basically redeemed by lyrical and passionate food writing.

So my second Read Harder book and I am initially unsure of how to classify it. I think it would like to be literary fiction, and I initially thought it would be a culinary infected thriller about bird flu in Indonesia. It actually is a romance, both of the standard type and one of food - the heroine is a bird expert travelling Indonesia with her stuck up colleague trying to help cure or quarantine the 2011 SARS outbreak. Joining her are her best male and female friends, a chef and a food writer..more

This book was almost a 'DNF' (Did Not Finish) for me. The English translation is solid. The tone is snarky, in fact, very snarky, but overly artificial and uncomfortable. Flippant but not witty. (Was the author or the translator trying to do a poor imitation of Carrie Bradshaw or Samantha Jones from 'Sex in the City'?) Aruna, the main character, seems like an adolescent with displaced or misplaced anger.

Hal yang paling menarik di novel ini (sesuai judulnya) adalah cara Laksmi Pamuntjak menceritakan tentang makanan. Jelas sih, tambahan “gelar” Penulis The Jakarta Good Food Guide di covernya terbukti. Aduhai sekali, bikin air liur menetes dan lapar.

Ini buku yang sangat ingin aku baca ketika pertama kali terbit. Konsepnya terbilang megah; menggabungkan kekayaan kuliner nusantara, politik, konspirasi. Terlebih profil si penulisnya memang menjanjikan bahwa karya ini enggak bakal kopong--dan memang tidak.

This is a painstakingly told tale of one woman eating her way through her own country. She does this while acting as a consultant epidemiologist, trying to prove that an outbreak of the avian flu is actually occurring. As she journeys through her homeland..accompanied by her two best friends, we see her grow professionally and romantically. By the end of the book, she has found a balance between real-life, where relationships feed us and her tendencies to isolate herself, only finding joy from..more

Saya punya ekspektasi tinggi dengan novel ini mengingat Amba adalah salah satu novel paling luar biasa yang pernah saya baca. Namun, Aruan & Lidahnya terbukti sebagai novel follow-up yang cukup mengecewakan. Premisnya cukup menarik, tapi eksekusinya buat saya kurang rapi.

Isu serius yang diangkat adalah upaya menjadikan suatu fenomena sebagai bencana nasional supaya anggaran pemerintah turun untuk ‘menangani’ fenomena tersebut. Tapi isu itu bukan topik utama novel jadi nggak perlu berharap tinggi.
Sebagaimana judulnya, novel ini fokusnya ke wisata kuliner (dan beberapa isu menarik soal makanan). Bila berhasil menggeser fokus dari ‘isu serius’ ke kuliner, novel ini akan jadi bacaan yang menyenangkan untukmu. Nikmati saja sajiannya.

Did not finish. While some reviewers indicated that this book would be enjoyable for non-foodie's, it is way to heavy on detailed descriptions of food dishes to keep my interest. Maybe if I had a better sense of the dishes described, I would be more interested, but mostly, I'm not interested enough in food culture to invest more time in a book I didn't connect with 2 hours into an 11 hour audiobook.

I made it about halfway through this one. It's not terrible but feels like an absentminded conversation between friends or being able to read someone's self-absorbed thoughts. There wasn't enough plot to keep me motivated.

Too much food
Seriously, the characters should weigh 300 pounds with all the food they eat. Got tired reading about it. I had hoped to learn about their culture but they sound more like Americans obsessed with food and sex.

Laksmi Pamuntjak's trademark lush prose and sparkling dialogue shine in this culinary journey through Indonesia from the perspective of epidemiologist Aruna. It's no surprise that the author of Jakarta's Good Food Guide should produce a novel suffused with the love of intense flavours and dishes, but it is Pamuntjak's discipline as a poet that makes the depictions of her home country so vivid and enticing. A novel to be savoured!

The descriptions of food are transporting, especially as someone who has never been to Indonesia. The gradual blossoming of the protagonist simmers through the book and the ending is both a shock and comforting.

I wanted to like this. As other reviewers have said, the plot just falls apart. The food descriptions were interesting but I would have gotten more out of an illustrated cookbook. I liked Aruna at the beginning, but then the relationships between characters just made less and less sense. I kept on until the end, but can't say I recommend.
