The Coconut Republic by Manuel D. Montealegre

The Coconut Republic is the Philippines slyly masked in Montealegre's novel. Using the elements of parody and satire, The Coconut Republic makes its readers laugh at the nation's many mishaps and foibles, while drawing into the attention the cyclic viciousness of the Republic's history through its commingling of the past with the present. The Coconut Republic is Montealegre's first published work.
