Sitor Situmorang

Situmorang, Sitor

Born Oct. 2, 1923, on the island of Samosir, Sumatra. Indonesian writer of Batak nationality.

Situmorang began publishing in 1949. He was influenced by the philosophy of existentialism and especially by A. Camus, as seen in the poetry collections Letters on Green Paper (1953), Nameless Face (1955), and Amid Poetry (1955), in the one-act plays in the collection Mutiara Street (1954), and in the short stories in Battle and Snow in Paris (1956).

Situmorang participated in activities of the Afro-Asian Writers’ Association. Beginning in 1961, with the publication of his poetry collection New Era, he has been increasingly influenced by leftist Chinese views, according to which literature’s only role is that of political agitation; an example is his collection of critical essays Revolutionary Literature (1965). In 1965, soon after power in Indonesia shifted to the army, Situmorang was imprisoned.
