Under Jakarta’s neon haze, love feels reckless, secrets flow easier, and mistakes taste sweeter. In Jakarta After Dark: City of Sins & Dreams, Burhan Abe — former editor-in-chief of Popular and MALE magazines — captures the city’s after-hours pulse with a tender, unflinching eye.
Through chapters that throb with bass lines, swirl with cigarette smoke, and glisten with rain-slick streets, Abe invites us into a world where strangers become lovers, clubs feel like confessionals, and every regret is wrapped in the thrill of the night.
This isn’t just nightlife journalism — it’s a love letter to fleeting connections, cheap cocktails, and the poetry of what happens after midnight.
