Feelings? Hearts? Or nothing wrong? All of it is only ourselves who can find the answer. However, while in trouble do not just focus on who to blame, but how to solve the problem. Especially the problem of heart and feelings.
Like the character I wrote by Dwitasari in his book After You Go. Dwitasari poured the story of the character I who was mourning the wounds and pain of being abandoned by the lover (red: Brother) without cause. When the character I'm dear-unfortunately, is fighting for his relationship suddenly the person he strives for disappears without news and traces. How sick and sore he felt was packed in detail and interesting by Dwitasari. The choice of right and vivid words makes the reader feel as if I am sick.
In his book, Dwitasari talks about a world called the past with a pretty sharp perception, technique, and good writing style. Unfortunately, the flow he brought was quite complicated, had to read several times to understand the grooves presented. The sadness, the disappointment, the loneliness, the longing, the despair, and the anxiety experienced by the I was so severe. After the departure of the lover I fought hard to get up from its downturn, to be able to walk straight ahead without having to look back again.
I always try to occupy myself to be able to forget his former lover, until finally he met a man named Koko. There is no other way, that terbesit in the heart of the I was trying to love Koko as an escape so he can forget the Abang. Tokoh I am willing to be the third person between Koko and her lover just to forget Abang. However, love that is not based on sincerity will not last long.
If you look at the style and theme sung, this novel is recomended to readers of high school teenagers who start growing up. Conflict presented is still a little light so easy to understand. My attempt to rise and forget the past is a plus in this book. However, it must be remembered also words written by Dwitasari through figures I can wash away the feelings of readers who in fact still unstable or are in early puberty.
Overall the book is pretty good, although the style of the story and the angle of his view is somewhat similar to Boy Candra's writings entitled A Forgotten Effort. There are still a few shortcomings in the characteristics of the character he presents the plot is still less clear, and the only theme about heartbreak. However, there is nothing wrong if this book is used as a reading material to fill the spare time so as not to memorize the past too long and motivate yourself to rise from adversity.
