Dee Lestari, is one of the bestselling and critically acclaimed writers in Indonesia.
Born in January 20, 1976, she began her debut with a serial novel: Supernova in 2001. Supernova’s first episode, Kesatria, Putri, dan Bintang Jatuh (The Knight, The Princess, and The Falling Star), was sold phenomenally, achieving a cult status among Indonesian young readers. She has published four other episodes: Akar (The Root), Petir (The Lightning), Partikel(The Particle), and Gelombang (The Wave).
Aside of the Supernova series, Dee has also published a novel titled Perahu Kertas (Paper Boat), and three anthologies: Filosofi Kopi (Coffee’s Philosophy), Madre, and Rectoverso — a unique hybrid of music and literature.
Dee also has an extensive music career, producing four albums with her former vocal trio, and two solo albums. She has been writing songs for renowned Indonesian artists.
Perahu Kertas (Paper Boat) was turned into a movie in 2009, marking Dee’s debut as a screenplay writer. The movie became one of the national's block busters. Following the same path, Madre, Filosofi Kopi, Madre, and Supernova KPBJ, were made into movies.
In February 2016, Dee released the final episode of Supernova, Inteligensi Embun Pagi (Intelligence of the Morning Dew). All Dee’s books are published by Bentang Pustaka.

Jurnal edisi ini merupakan tribut bagi wanita penulis kontemporer. Selain karya-karya mereka juga terdapat hasil wawancara mereka & esai-esai mengenai fenomena kepenulisan perempuan & isu-isu wanita lainnya. *”Tanpa harus memberikan peringkat ke-sastra-an atau ke-populer-an di masa datang mungkin perkembangan sastra kita akan ditentukan oleh perempuan.”- Sapardi Djoko Damono -”Karya-karya novelis wanita muncul sebagai wacana alternatif. Seks tiba-tiba menjadi kekuatan alternatif ketika cinta tak lagi menjadi sumber kekuatan bagi subjek ketika cinta tak lagi berada dalam konteks perjuangan & perlawanan.”- Faruk -”Tema seksualitas adl indikasi semakin berani penulis perempuan mendobrak nilai-nilai patriarki.”- Intan Paramaditha -”Ini adl sebuah bacaan yg berisi meta-commentary tentang membaca.”- Manneke Budiman - Prosa 4 Yang Jelita Yang Cerita.

sebenarnya sudah lama selesai bacanya..
Kisah-kisahnya unik, mmasing-masing penulis punya ciri khas. memang karena prosa jadi lebih bebas tetapi juga ungkapan-ungkapan tersirat yang cukup kuat dalam mengutarakan rasa dan karsa perempuan.
