a stunning collection and my favorite from mookie. gripping language from the first quarter and compelling lines. this a collection where you know the writer had so much fun with her craft and dedicated a lot of intelligence and wit to pull these off. i was reading a copy my friend lent to me, part of the ampersand series, and i was six poems in when i realized i needed to get a copy of my own. beautiful read from start to finish. mookie really is one of the great filipino poets we have today
