KW - PHILIPPINE ESSAYS (ENGLISH) N2 - What does a house speak? It speaks many things : of certain enduring affections, of abscence, neglect, infidelities of distance, distraction, forgetting. In this collection of essays, National Artist for Literature Resil Mojares makes his way into the past by framing his memories and musing as parts of a house. Each essay elicits that familiar nostalgia one gets while visiting an old home and wistfully rummaging through long-forgotten objects that bring back the fond memories of childhood. -- ER -
