This is Cirilo F. Bautista’s 13th (and final) book of poems, written in 2012 to 2016 in an inspired stretch of imagination. They are narrative transcriptions of social and personal experiences that have affected his views of humanity—suffering, pain, hunger, war, love—they are here, interpreted as only Bautista can.
Bautista, declared National Artist for Literature in 2014, shows the craft and artistry that put him in the forefront of Philippine literary development.
A better epic poet than any American I know.

My admiration for the mind and spirit of Cirilo F. Bautista.
-William Saroyan
Cirilo F. Bautista is the long-needed break-away from the lyric tradition that Jose Garcia Villa created.
-Nick Joaquin
National Artist for Literature
His writings have done much to enhance the framework of Philippine nationalism beyond the narrow bounds of the traditional concepts of what is Filipino; and have brought in a global inclusiveness that has set the Philippines as a vibrant member among the other nations of the world.
