Contentment and Suffering, a psychocultural ethnography of the Toraja wetrice farmers of Indonesia, provides a rich portrait of Torajan life and contributes to debates on the relationship between culture and individual psychology.Hollan and Wellenkamp describe the central aspects of Torajan personal experience emotion, identity, and sense of self and a variety of fascinating cultural practices, including possession trance, kickfights, elaborate mortuary customs, dream interpretation, and buffalo sacrifice.Presenting exceptionally detailed ethnographic data through a personcentered perspective and extensive use of openended interviews, Contentment and Suffering engagingly expresses how the Toraja understand their lives.
