Gapo Lualhati Bautista Book

Book Comments & Discussion
In a well-written work of fiction, Lualhati Bautista captures the differing opinions that have held sway in the Philippines regarding the US military bases. More than being a political commentary, it shows us a glimpse into the Filipino consciousness, especially that of colonial mentality, [a desire for things "stateside"], abandoned Amerasian children, hopeful prostitutes waiting to be taken to the US etc.
