This edition of the Classical Malay prose work, the Hikajat Andaken Penurat includes an English translation and an Introduction explaining the place of the work in Malay literature. The Hikajat Andaken Penurat tells the story of the prince Raden Andaken Penurat and his beloved, Ken Tambuhan. It is closely related to the Shair Ken Tambuhan, a poem that has appeared in several editions. The story is relatively short and well written; it is representative of its genre. The book is especially intended for readers who have little or no knowledge of Malay.
