"A child finds joy in a long-gone menagerie as the world crumbles around her, a young idealist strikes out through a blighted city in search of a forgotten star, a train ride becomes a journey of rescue for the lost and thirsting, a woman nurses her naked father and her own profound wounds.

In the supple and luminous prose that is her trademark, multi-awarded storyteller Lakambini A. Sitoy explores the passionate and often vicious bonds between girls and women, the raw loneliness of urban life, the faint shadow of death in smiling sunlight, the thrill of erotic impulse."
A Philippine import. Limited copies available.
