Iris - Ang Reyna Ng Sandaigdig Na Kulay

Collection of short stories of a well-known prolific Filipino writer. He was a Filipino poet, short story writer and novelist. Three of his novels have been published by Ateneo de Manila Press - Piling Nobela: Lakandula, Halimuyak, Ang Bungo (1997). Three novels that present the causes of the people's misery. Written by the notable multi-awarded fictionist during the American Occupation. Soledad S. Reyes of Ateneo de Manila University wrote: "The interconnectedness between the past and the present was a theme familiar to many Filipino writers who, in a variety of ways, argued the need to remember the past. Francisco Laksamana, Faustino Aguilar, Lazaro Francisco, Alberto Segismundo Cruz, Macario Pineda, and even Fausto Galauran, among others, constructed narratives enjoining the readers not to be dazzled by the present, but to remember the heroic and noble past of their forefathers."
