INDONESIA-FRANCE-LITERATURE-EDITION


TO GO WITH AFP STORY "FRANCE-INDONESIA-LITERATURE-EDITION" BY LOIC VENNIN

In this photograph taken on December 5, 2011 villagers travel by boat on a river next to a new railway bridge before Tuntang train station near the town of Salatiga in Indonesia's Central Java province. The Dutch built terminal was a landmark in the life of famous French poet Arthur Rimbaud (1854-1891), when he embarked on a journey to Java at the age of 21 after conscripting to serve in the Dutch colonial army. Arriving in Batavia on July 22, 1876 Rimbaud and hundreds of Dutch troops were transported by train to Tuntang and stationed in Salatiga garrison where he deserted after two weeks as American author Jamie James chronicles Rimbaud's mysterious journey in current day Java in his book "Rimbaud in Java, the lost voyage" published by Editions Didier Millet.
