List of works by Kwee Tek Hoay

Chinese-Indonesian author Kwee Tek Hoay (1886–1951) wrote 62 books or serials (36 non-fiction and 26 fiction), 3 essays, and 11 stage plays.

[3] Two of his works, the novel Boenga Roos dari Tjikembang (1927)[4] and the study Atsal Moelanja Timboel Pergerakan Tionghoa di Indonesia (1936/37),[1] have been translated into English.

[6] A fluent English speaker, Kwee adapted several of his writings – both fiction and non-fiction – from publications outside the Dutch East Indies.

[1] Thematically, Chinese teachings and culture feature prominently in Kwee's works, in which reincarnation and mysticism are common.

[7] Criticism of the ethnic Chinese in the Indies is also present; Allah jang Palsoe, for instance, criticised the blind pursuit of money while ignoring cultural and societal norms,[8] whilst the stageplay Korbannja Kong Ek criticised the management of the Tiong Hoa Hwee Koan and its schools.
