About the book
"Full of narrative surprise, artfully put together and richly observed. It offers an unillusioned, compassionate portrayal of contemporary society from a Philippine perspective, and is utterly compelling. The characters engage us in the epic yet very local nature of their quest for dignity and justice. A work of warmth, humanity and confidence." --The 2007 Man Asian Literary Prize Jury
