| Summary | "Kadjaman" by H. De Vere Stacpoole is a narrative fiction written in the early 20th century. The book explores themes of nature, humanity, and the relationship between humans and animals, set against the backdrop of the intriguing landscapes of Borneo. Through its adventurous storyline, the novel reflects on the primal instincts that connect and divide different species. The story follows the events surrounding a boy named Ting and his strange bond with an orangutan named Kadjaman. After a series of events leading to Kadjaman's escape from captivity, he kidnaps Ting, taking him into the jungle. The boy's father, Tuan Marop, embarks on a perilous journey back into the wilderness to rescue his son, hoping to reclaim him from the clutches of nature. As Tuan confronts the stark realities of life in the jungle, the narrative raises questions about the essence of humanity and the potential for reversion to primal instincts when influenced by the wild. The tale weaves together elements of adventure and introspection, ultimately showcasing the complexities of family ties and the animalistic traits shared by humans and their closest relatives.
