Between Loss and Forever
"As a journalist grief coach and mother who lost a child, (the author) accompanies the mothers with deep compassion. She journeys with them not only with feeling, but also with a clear understanding of the grieving... This book can serve as a good guide for grieving mothers and their families, and all those who want to help them." — Ma. Lourdes A. Carandang, MD
Philippine Gay Culture
The book is a descriptive survey of popular and academic writings on and by Filipino male homosexuals, as well as a genealogy of discourses of male homosexuality and the bakla and/or gay identities that emerged in urban Philippines from the1960s to the present. This conceptual history engages recent events in the Philippines' sexually self-aware present, but also explores colonial history in showing how modernity implanted a new sexual order of "homo/hetero" and further marginalized the effeminate local identity of bakla.

Francisco
