La última corrida (Ang Huling Korida)
Spanish-Filipino version
Tao laban sa hayop. Mga babaeng nagsasayaw na may kastanyetas. Isang mapanganib na pag-indayog na bibighani at magbibigay-takot sa buong liwasan. Dumating sina Celipe at Relojerín sa Iloilo upang patumbahin ang mga toro gamit ang kanilang espada, ngunit ngayon ay may masidhi na ring hangarin na bihagin ang mga puso nina Manolita at Lilia.
Yayanigin ng dalawang torerong mula sa Maynila ang buong liwasan, at matatagpuan nila ang kanilang mga sarili sa isang pambihirang kalagayan, sa pagitan ng pagkahumaling, pag-ibig, at panibugho. Kung ang kanilang kapalaran ay wala na sa kanilang kamay, bagkus ay nakasalalay sa malamig na simoy ng dagat, pitik ng kastanyetas, at talas ng sungay ng dambuhalang toro, pag-ibig ba ang sa kanila ay magliligtas o siyang maghahatid ng kamatayan?
Kinulayan at muling binigyang-buhay mula sa personal na koleksyon ng premyadong manunulat na si Guillermo Gómez Rivera, guhit ni Ramón Fernández Pasión, inihahandog ng Vibal Foundation, Inc. ang isang kuwentong mula sa tila limot nang pahina ng kasaysayan—ang panahong ang pakikipaglaban sa isang toro ay kasing mapanganib ng poot ng isang babae.
"Madalas ay hindi makaugnay ang mga kabataan satuwing pinag-uusapan ang mga kultural na pamanang kolonyalismong Espanyol, dahil nakatali lámang ang kanilang kaalaman sa Kristiyanismo at sa pang-aapi. Sa akdang ito, dadalhin sila ng mga salita at imahensa isang kawili-wiling paglalakbay, at hahangaan nila at pahahalagahan ang isang bahagi ng kasaysayan nanakamamanghang matuklasan: ang mga sayaw mula sa Andalusia at ang labanan ng mga matador at toro na lalong nagpapatingkad sa nakaraan ng mga Filipino."
-Prof. Michael Charleston “Xiao” Chua
