Description
Synopsis: Gontor Islamic Boarding School stores plenty of inspiring stories from its students. Like the story of a primary school graduate child aged 11 years old, who is active, quite rebellious and has many wants in this Opera Van Gontor novel. He has to be instantly independent, disciplined, highly dedicated, separated from his family, when many of his peers are having fun playing, and there are also others who dropped out of school due to various causes. The trainings from the disciplined and wise religious teachers, make the experience of the students in Gontor heartwarming and full of ups and downs. This chronicle of students’ experiences in Gontor is written openly, witty and smart. This is the portrait of modern boarding school in the 70s. An era when several present day national figures were born and drilled to loyally serve the motherland. This book is a very valuable first-hand account of a research tradition. It is the deepest voice of a student who sees himself, his environment and the outside world. --- K.H. Hasyim Muzadi, Chairman of the Board of Nahdhatul Ulama (PBNU) 1999-2010 (http://www.gramediainternational.com/book/detail/9789792259971)
