Salingkit
Kitty Eugenio’s life is far from ideal. She has to live with her relatives. Her mother has gone abroad. Her best friends sometimes act weird, and sometimes keep secrets from her. Her classmates persist in pairing her with a boy she doesn’t like, but who just might be able to help in the search for her father. The love of her life doesn’t know she exists. And it’s not just any ordinary year, it’s the year of the Tiger, the year of People Power, the year of Halley’s Comet, the year of upheaval and change.
Letters From Crispin
When Alice sleeps over Lola-grandma’s house for Lola-grandma’s hundredth birthday, she receives a mysterious letter from a boy named Crispin, who claims to be a neighbor. But there is no one her age for miles around, except for a boy named Jason. Who is Crispin? What does he have to do with the haunted house across Calle Nuevo? And what connects the February Revolution to the hundred years before it?
Leaf and Shadow
A collection of stories about some strange but essentially friendly creatures: a homesick anito stuck behind an old aparador; a musical rocking horse carved out of a very special block of wood; a poor kapre blamed by Old Manang for all the misdeeds in Lola’s house; and a shadow man who hosts parties in his shadow world.

Triggered
In 2017, college professor Jocelyn Martin invited her freshmen English classes to write fiction stories about the issue of extrajudicial killings in the Philippines. Six of the best stories were chosen for publication. Her fellow teacher Cyan Abad-Jugo invited professional writers to mentor these students in polishing their stories and processing this very complex topic, all while contributing their own written pieces in response. What resulted was an anthology of creative responses to a crucial subject, a conversation between generations, and a memorial against oblivion.
The Earth-Healers
Since Mang Gorio’s cow has turned white, things have turned a little topsy-turvy for Jopi. Suddenly he can talk to a cow and a rat, as well as to strange creatures in the trees and under the ground. Something is amiss in Molles Village, and only Jopi seems to know it has to do with the Mayor and his new drill. Will Jopi know what to do in time to save his village from the dangers he—and only he—has been warned about?
Philippine Studies
These essays by Philippine and U.S.-based scholars illustrate the dynamism and complexities of the discursive field of Philippine studies as a critique of vestiges of "universalist" (Western/hegemonic) paradigms; as an affirmation of "traditional" and "emergent" cultural practices; as a site for new readings of "old" texts and "new" popular forms brought into the ambit of serious scholarship; and as a liberative space for new art and literary genres.
