    O So True
  

*by O***N on Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2005*

Waiting at the airport, having missed my plane, with much thanks to the taxi driver that decided to take me the scenic way, I had not much to do but look around the many shops. Luckily a little book wrapped in clear plastic caught my attention."Bule Gila" a term that had been reffered to myself only days prior is a light hearted but but oh so true interpretation of the day to day dealings in Indonesian culture.Being 36 years old, I have not had the patience to read a book since my teen years at school. With a somewhat short attention span and overactive mind, reading a book was the last thing on my mind for my return trip to Australia. In eight hours, on and off, I finished the book and was dissapointed to get to the end. The stewardesses must surely have been wondering what my bursts of laughter were about between the hours of midnight and six am.Looking forward to a "bule Gila 2". Great work Bartelle and I will surely visit Bugills the next time that I am in town.O.E.

    A good and humorous book - highly recommended
  

*by B***D on Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2008*

I really enjoyed reading this book, I got quite a few laughs.  Each chapter is short (approx 2 pages or so), has different themes and context and always tells a good story.  You are hooked from the start of each chapter as you find yourself compelled to finish reading the story to find out what happened in the outcome of Bartele's experience.I highly recommend this book as a read on your daily journeys to/from work on the bus/train/ferry or if you are alone having a quiet beer in bar.

    Blue Gila
  

*by I***C on Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2005*

A very entertaining look at expat life in Jakarta.  An enjoyable and easy read.  It rings true to life.  Having managed a bar in Indonesia in the 70s I particularly related to it.  I looke forward to visiting BuGils.
