Publisher Notes
In the final weeks of the brutal Japanese occupation of the Philippines during World War II, three different Filipino narrators--a thirteen-year-old boy, his older sister, and a guerrilla commander--recount the experiences of a people desperately struggling in the midst of the horrors of war, in a debut novel based on the experiences of the author's father. Reader's Guide available. Reprint.
Media Reviews
"[A] remarkably rich story....[A] well-orchestrated chorus of voices that should strike a strong chord with many."
