Death in a Sawmill and other stories (Southeast Asian Writing) by Rony V. Diaz

Out of print title.

Sometime in 1953, in a class in creative writing at the University of Santo Tomas, the critic Manuel A. Viray was explaining the effective use of language in fiction. The Palanca Award winners had just beem announced in the newspapers, and among them was a new writer from the University of the Philippines. The writer was Romy V. Diaz, and Viray was talking about his way with verbs, how this young writer could charge the printed page with movement simply by a careful, yes, self-conscious, choice of action words.
