Child Of The Jungle
Child of the Jungle recounts Sabine Kuegler’s extraordinary childhood amid the Fayu of West Papua, beginning with her formation within a remote, perilous wilderness where survival dictates hard-won skills and rapid adaptability. The narrative traces how a European girl negotiates two irreconcilable worlds: the intimate, ancestral rhythms of the jungle and the encroaching forces of modernity, conflict, and cultural rupture. It portrays her immersion in Fayu customs, language, and daily practices, alongside the unforgettable cruelties and chances for tenderness the forest affords. The book offers a lucid meditation on immersion, identity, and the price of belonging when belonging is neither simple nor stable. It also charts Sabine’s dawning awareness of violence, displacement, and the fragility of tribal life under pressure from outside forces. The memoir ultimately follows her decision to depart the jungle as a necessary act of self-preservation and ethical reckoning. Throughout, the prose balances vivid, granular detail with a reflective distance that questions the costs and rewards of crossing cultural frontiers. In this tension between rootedness and rupture, the work becomes both a coming-of-age narrative and a scrutinizing meditation on the fragility of worlds in collision.*

In 1980 seven-year-old Sabine Kuegler and her family went to live in a remote jungle area of West Papua among the recently discovered Fayu - a tribe untouched by modern civilisation. Her childhood was spent hunting, shooting poisonous spiders with arrows and chewing on pieces of bat-wing in place of gum. She also learns how brutal nature can be - and sees the effect of war and hatred on tribal peoples. After the death of her Fayu-brother, Ohri, Sabine decides to leave the jungle and, aged seventeen, she goes to a boarding school in Switzerland - a traumatic change for a girl who acts and feels like one of the Fayu. 'Fear is something I learnt here' she says. 'In the Lost Valley, with a lost tribe, I was happy. In the rest of the world it was I who was lost.' Here is Sabine Kuegler's remarkable true story of a childhood lived out in the Indonesian jungle, and the struggle to conform to European society that followed. 19.8 x12.8 x2.2 cm, buy.
