Driftwood on Dry Land by T. S. Sungkit, Jr.
In stock
This 2013 publication is the English translation of T. S. Sungkit, Jr.'s 2007 Cebuano novel, "Mga Gapnod sa Kamad-an," which won the 2007 NCCA Writers' Prize.
From the back cover:
“...[T]he novel is a masterpiece in its ability to engage the reader in experiencing vicariously the tribal history of a people.
Here is an example of magical realism that is truly Filipino. The interweave of social context and individual lives of the leading Bukidnon characters is smooth, even if such covers several generations. The more important effect of the novel is not aesthetic or simple pleasure at the language and narrative but a better understanding of the conflict in Mindanao from the point of view of its original inhabitants.”
- Dr. Erlinda K. Alburo
