Orejola","description":"This novel is an evocative and emotional portrayal of the controversial, almost forgotten, chapter of the Philippine-American War, the Balangiga massacre. A remorseful Felipe mulls over his past. He narrates his ambivalent roles during those difficult times. Working as a houseboy in the main barracks of Company C, he was tipped by his Filipino friends about a plot to massacre the Americans, but he did nothing to alert Sir Tom Connell, the garrison commander. During the attack, he and Francisco, another Filipino houseboy in the Officers' quarters, fought with the American soldiers against the Filipinos. They survived and fled with the remaining soldiers to Basey. Felipe was back in his hometown. His older brother Victor, an insurrecto, took him to the Sohoton camps. The Marines under Major Waller arrived in Basey to carry out the \"Kill and burn\" order of Gen. Smith. When the Americans stormed and captured the base, Felipe fought with the insurrectos. Victor and other insurrectos disguised as cargadores infiltrated Waller's mission to march, explore and possibly string a telephone line from Lanang to Basey. But the mission failed, eleven Marines perished in the forbidding jungles of Samar, partly to blame was the obstinate attitude and mutiny of the cargadores. While it was a failure for Waller, so it was for Victor. Waller foiled an attempt on his life in the jungle; Victor the would-be assassin. Waller ordered Victor's execution and ten other cargadores. Weeks earlier, Major Glenn, in Waller's absence, had executed the town officials implicated in a plot to carry out another Balangiga-like massacre on the Basey garrison. It was the peak of the brutal campaign to turn the interior of Samar into a \"howling wilderness.\" Not only would ghosts come back to haunt everyone; so would feelings of guilt and shame that mired these unfortunate events in controversy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePaperback: 252 pages\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Trafford Publishing (February 13, 2006)\u003cbr\u003eLanguage: English\u003cbr\u003eISBN-10: 141207900-4\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 978-14-1-207900-6\u003cbr\u003eProduct Dimensions: 6 x 0.6 x 9 inches\u003cbr\u003eShipping Weight: 12.8 ounces","brand":"Trafford Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39567415214246,"sku":"20","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/0785\/3478\/products\/b1fb404c75f7c656e22ca80f7f79cbf3.jpg?v=1616549601"},{"product_id":"hanggang-sa-muli-homecoming-stories-for-the-filipino-soul-edited-by-reni-r-roxas","title":"Hanggang sa Muli: Homecoming Stories for the Filipino Soul Edited by Reni R.

Francia","description":"English is often a primary literary language for Filipino writers--not only for those in the Philippines but for those resident in the US; both groups are included in this anthology of 31 stories and 108 poems documenting a tradition that began at the turn-of-the-century. Manila-born poet and writer Francia, an editor at the Village Voice, gathers and validates creative work that has had limited distribution not only here but in Asia. ``In the Philippine context, what is foreign and what is indigenous has always been a tricky and ultimately impossible subject,'' Francia writes in his introduction. ``Filipinos have unconsciously perfected the art of mixing the two up....'' Readers who expect Filipino English to have the unexpected inflections and inventiveness of Indian or Caribbean English will be disappointed: the Filipino writer uses standard American English as a native language, but spices it naturally with words form indigenous and adopted tongues: Tagalog, Spanish, Ilokano, etc. Stories look at unrequited passion (in which the sensual tropical ambiance is at odds with society's rules); village life; the different cultures that have settled in the archipelago--Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, Hindu Indian; and the consequences of military, colonial, and economic occupation. Both poems and stories consider the experience of Filipinos--some intellectual, some humble--in the US. Among the more familiar contributors: Carlos Bulosan, Jos‚ Garc¡a Villa, Jessica Hagedorn, and Ninotchka Rosca. While the prose selected here is more consistent in quality than the poetry, the poems seem more wide-ranging; like the fiction writers, the poets consider love, politics, and metaphysics but move as well into experimentation and the modernist realm.

Here over 60 women writers evidence the rectitude of the Catholic Spanish past, Malay roots, and the steady, century-long revolutionary wind of American influence. As the storm of modernity oxygenates, it also mows down custom and tradition and unleashes cries against imperialism, odes to migration, and tales of struggle among social classes. Paradoxically, this savage wind also points women in the direction of freedom. The editors, both poets and editors of other collections, include an excellent summary of the literature of Filipinas and an equally good bibliography that lists literary criticism, Internet resources, and other anthologies and works of Filipino writing. Highly recommended for high schools with Filipino students and for larger public and all academic libraries.

It's a small wonder, when the most recognizable poets--Ai, John Yau, Jessica Hagedorn--write poems in which ethnicity plays a minor role. Even Lawson Fusao Inada (who has drawn imagery from the Japanese detention camps) is represented by two poems about jazz. The best insights into the Asian-American experience come from lesser-known writers: in a stunning image, Amy Uyematsu compares a small woman with a \"shopping cart of used cans and rags\" to \"the Vietnamese grandmothers \/ I've seen so often in photographs\"; Li-Young Lee writes a masterful meditation on the ducks hanging in the Chinese butcher shop's window; Russell Leong's series of \"Aerogrammes\" from relatives back in China captures the relationship between old world and new with sensitivity and humor. Even writers who yearn for customs they never inherited display surprisingly little anger or bitterness, quite possibly a factor in the relative obscurity of their work.

His intelligent introduction condemns those who would apply \"a litmus test of ethnic authenticity\" to writing, as well as those who insist upon the \"macho\" camp of ethnic warrior poets. The styles of the 31 poets included range from confessional to surreal. Many were born and attended writing programs in this country, and some will be familiar to poetry readers (e.g., Ai, Cathy Song, Li-Young Li, John Yau, and David Mura). For good reasons, these poets are compulsive storytellers, driven to explain their backgrounds and contexts to a non-Asian audience. Beyond bitterness and cultural ambivalence, the best of these poems share a profound humor that emanates from the absurdity of cultural and temporal juxtapositions.

This anthology reminds us of a Southeast Asian past and present composed of polyethnic, multilingual, and rapidly modernizing societies. But it is also an inherently American phenomenon.

Yet all have messages to convey, and do so in the incandescent language of those struggling for survival in a hostile environment. Contributors here discuss the realities of immigrating to an alien land; the history of Asian-American women’s work in the trades and professions; anger at injustices they confront as women and as Asians; and the activism that has helped them to discover their identities. South Asia Bulletin co-publisher Sucheta Mazumdar’s introduction, “A Woman-Centered Perspective on Asian American History,” provides valuable context for the kaleidoscopic views expressed in this remarkable volume.

There are also those who still cling to the Philippine culture, but have a strong allegiance to the U.S., especially the older second generation (70s to 80s) who may visit the islands but not return to live.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"globalStoreInfoBullets_feature_div\" class=\"celwidget\" data-feature-name=\"globalStoreInfoBullets\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"globalStoreInfoBullets\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"globalStoreInfoBullets_feature_div\" data-csa-c-asin=\"069202154X\" data-csa-c-is-in-initial-active-row=\"false\" data-csa-c-id=\"7mqj50-q1o7zy-lcpk30-2kc3si\" data-cel-widget=\"globalStoreInfoBullets_feature_div\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"buyingOptionNostosBadge_feature_div\" class=\"celwidget\" data-feature-name=\"buyingOptionNostosBadge\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"buyingOptionNostosBadge\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"buyingOptionNostosBadge_feature_div\" data-csa-c-asin=\"069202154X\" data-csa-c-is-in-initial-active-row=\"false\" data-csa-c-id=\"ifl4pd-c3rmbn-69gi68-fdkvme\" data-cel-widget=\"buyingOptionNostosBadge_feature_div\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"tellAmazon_feature_div\" class=\"celwidget\" data-feature-name=\"tellAmazon\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"tellAmazon\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"tellAmazon_feature_div\" data-csa-c-asin=\"069202154X\" data-csa-c-is-in-initial-active-row=\"false\" data-csa-c-id=\"rn686-56fnox-90micg-8octi5\" data-cel-widget=\"tellAmazon_feature_div\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"celwidget c-f\" data-csa-op-log-render=\"\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"DsUnknown\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"DsUnknown-7\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-csa-c-painter=\"tell-amazon-desktop-cards\" data-csa-c-id=\"6xsqet-ulyitr-6hwugv-npbsyg\" data-cel-widget=\"tell-amazon-desktop_DetailPage_6\" cel_widget_id=\"tell-amazon-desktop_DetailPage_6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"CardInstancet4e53PfCuSkR7NTOMlhNPg\" data-card-metrics-id=\"tell-amazon-desktop_DetailPage_6\" data-acp-tracking=\"{}\" data-mix-claimed=\"true\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-asin=\"069202154X\" data-marketplace=\"ATVPDKIKX0DER\" data-logged-in=\"false\" class=\"_tell-amazon-desktop_style_tell_amazon_div__1YDZk\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-asin=\"069202154X\" data-marketplace=\"ATVPDKIKX0DER\" data-logged-in=\"false\" class=\"_tell-amazon-desktop_style_tell_amazon_div__1YDZk\"\u003ePublisher ‏ : ‎ Eastwind Books of Berkeley; First Edition (April 28, 2014)\u003cbr\u003eLanguage ‏ : ‎ English\u003cbr\u003ePaperback ‏ : ‎ 225 pages\u003cbr\u003eISBN-10 ‏ : ‎ 069202154X\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13 ‏ : ‎ 978-0692021545\u003cbr\u003eItem Weight ‏ : ‎ 11 ounces\u003cbr\u003eDimensions ‏ : ‎ 6 x 0.5 x 8 inches\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Eastwind Books of Berkeley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45910038839462,"sku":"","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/0785\/3478\/files\/91v1x5YBCLL._SL1500.jpg?v=1729988510"},{"product_id":"lahing-pilipino-pilipino-american-anthology-by-jovina-navarro","title":"Lahing Pilipino: Pilipino American Anthology by Jovina Navarro","description":"","brand":"Asian American Studies Program","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45910039429286,"sku":"","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}]},{"product_id":"the-last-word-west-coast-writers-artists-zyzzyva-spring-1991-vol-vii-no-1-by-howard-junker","title":"The Last Word: West Coast Writers \u0026 Artists (Zyzzyva Spring 1991: Vol. VII, No. 1) by Howard Junker","description":"","brand":"Philippine Bookshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45955563782310,"sku":"","price":7.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}]},{"product_id":"mid-american-review-volume-xiv-number-1-by-robert-early","title":"Mid-American Review (Volume XIV, Number 1) by Robert Early","description":"\u003cp\u003eOut of print title.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cb id=\"docs-internal-guid-7172eeb2-7fff-9760-e3c4-e78ce3964327\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe only have 1 copy left.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e If interested, email us: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"mailto:LNL.philippinebookshop@yahoo.com\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLNL.philippinebookshop@yahoo.com\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e but do not pay for your order first.
