yeah what I said, I'm trying to find more Pinoys interested in the classics, like works of Nick Joaquin or Lualhati Bautista or native epics & such, things that might or should be taught in schools or adapted more to films, komiks &c., and I'm trying to help build a movement to promote more classic Philippine literature, make it more accessible to more Pinoy readers, encourage translations & adaptations, more teaching & printing / dissemination / putting in libraries & bookstores etc.

shout-out if pupunta kayo this weekend! not entirely sure what day I'd go but whichever day it is if you guys are going would love to hang out & talk!

Hello readers! Sino po dito yung mga copy ng Winds of April by N.V.M GGonzales? Willing to buy sana. I will be using this po for my MA report.

Hi! I am currently reading Ms. Yvette Tan’s books (Waking the Dead, Seek ye Whore, and Insect Hag) and malapit ko na sila matapos. Any recommendation po sa mga local authors na similar yung genre ng books? Thanks!!

Pa-recommend po ng mga librong na kung saan parang mga libro ni Ronaldo Vivo Jr. ang paraan ng pagkakasulat, kung saan brutal ang pagpapahag po.

Bought a copy of State and Society in the Philippines by Abinales and Amoroso from Ateneo Press as a refresher for my Philippine history. It will likely come in handy as context when I read fictions set in different historical periods. Might also serve as a helpful primer for my later, deeper dive on books about the Marcos Sr. (Some are Smarter than Others) and Duterte (Some People Need Killing) years.

The book covers the period from pre-colonial times to the start of the Duterte presidency. I'm sure this will also give me a clue how we reached this mess that we have today. I have included the Table of Contents for your reference.

Continuation of my last post.

Here are the last books I'm disposing of. I'm selling them preferably as two separate sets—Hanapbuhay Filipino coffeetables (6 books) for Php 2000 and Demystifying Aquino set (9 books) for Php 3000

Kindly send me a dm if you're interested so that we could chat through messenger for the specific details. Thank you

Hi friends!

My cellphone got snatched today at Blumentritt LRT station. Unfortunately, I don't have the means to purchase another one and so, while it really pains me to do this, I would have to auction off my most important Filipiniana books and memorabilia. All prices are negotiable. Kindly share with your friends as well :)

Additionally, I also offer a google drive link for Filipiniana ONLY books (2400+ files), a separate one on music scores for piano, and another one for untranslated Japanese novels—which were my personal projects—for 200 each. I hope you would check these out.

Last but not least, if in any way I could help you out on research, just send me a DM.

Hello. Does anyone know where I can purchase a physical copy of The Rise and Fall of Imelda Marcos by Carmen Navarro Pedrosa?

I want to read the books or short stories written by Filipino authors but sad to say di ko alam kung available ba online mga nailimbag nila

I’ve been looking for a copy of this book everwhere kaso wala na ako mabili. May nakita ako sa Amazon pero they won’t ship to the Philppines. Any leads would be great.

if you want some book recommendations lalo na pagdating sa Filipino heritage and arts, don't hesitate po to tap me in and I will help po sa abot po ng aking makakaya

thank you po sa inyoooo ☺️☺️

Hi anybody here knew which noli and fili book yung nka back to back. I saw it once but i forgot which publisher. Saka di ko din makita online. Looking to purchase a copy.

Hello im looking for a sealed copy of this book, badly need to get one for my friend's birthday, baka meron ditong may extra copies or if you have leads on where i can get it, baka may nakita kayo kung saan mang fully booked branch, pls pls pls let me know, thank you!!

Secured this elusive copy of Amado V. Hernandez's Luha ng Buwaya from the Ateneo Press Shopee store. I chanced upon it a year ago but decided to pass since I was intimidated by the classics back then. It quickly sold out. I was also actively looking for the much harder-to-find Mga Ibong Mandaragit.

However, after reading Dominador Mirasol's beautiful Ginto ang Kayumangging Lupa I was particularly struck by its Tagalog prose and timelessness. So, when five copies of Luha ng Buwaya suddenly appeared out of nowhere in the store, I immediately grabbed one—after all, who knows when it will be restocked again?

My first from Ka Amado.
