[Someone running with his head aflame] - Words Without Borders (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Someone running with his head aflame as the gods gust in his chest. The wind stirs him everywhere exhaustion’s gone. Others fall like trees. The men plead with the god of mice or the goddess of cow-eyes or the god who fills the sky with bolts. They wait for something to kindle them like embers.

The thistles below the hilltop spewed out seven armed shadows on their way to the hut. It was Ka Mapalad’s platoon. They were here for Gefuwen, who was about to help cure their snake-bitten comr
The Giant Mausoleum - Words Without Borders (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Alvin Yapan’s historical novel Ang sandali ng mga Mata (Time of the Eye) traces the stories of three generations of one Filipino family intersecting with sixty years of revolution. Yapan blends history and folklore, relaying documentary accounts with details bordering on the surreal. In this segment, set during the EDSA Revolution of February 22 to 25, 1986, protesting President Ferdinand Marcos, Nene Nueva fights her way through the teeming streets to the presidential residence to recover the s
