That's Jan Boon, the famous Indo writer.

He worked and wrote under the pseudonym Tjalie Robinson (his Indo persona), and under the pseudonym Vincent Mathieu (his Dutch persona). He worked tirelessly for years as Tjalie Robinson to maintain the Indo culture. He founded Tong Tong magazine now called Moesson which is the best Indo cultural magazine I know of.

Perhaps his best know book is "Piekerans van een Straatslipper" (Broodings of an Iddler), which I haven't seen in translation. Some of his writings as Vincent Mathieu i.e. The Hunt for the Heart are available from Oxford University Press. I think this work is hard to find Stateside although I've seen it in some book stores, but you can get it through Moesson.
