Summary: A Person is of More Value than the Whole World
Review: I can truly relate to the father. He apparently embodies an ideal Filipino who places a kin above anyone else. This is not say that Filipinos are family-centered, or in that sense, self-centered. The character displayed by the protagonist is nonetheless someone that anybody should highly regard. For some people, a dead person may lose significance. Yet, for a father who truly works hard for the living members of the family, remembering those who have passed away is simply an act of remembering those who are still alive. An act to be praised, isn't it? F. Arcellena has simply highlighted one of the most regarded identities of the Philippine Culture in this stunning masterpiece.
