This is a work of fiction based on my childhood memories growing up in a farming village in Capul Island in Northern Samar, Philippines. Most of the stories are based on my own experiences and of the people I grew up with. So if the reader could identify themselves in these pages, I may have been inspired by them. I have long wanted to document the colourful traditions of my hometown as I have written them in my journals. I believe I have written a collective experience of my people in these stories that took me several years to print.
