Summary, etc. |
a bejeweled corpse found buried in the Payatas landslide... The title is from a line by one of Fres-Felix's funniest people, brogi di Pogi, karate teacher. Still shocked from having been kicked in the face by one of his pubescent pupils, he sputters : "Ladies, form a straight circle!" In the words of her mentor, Palanca Hall-of-Fame awardee Butch Dalisay: "Dada Fres-Felix's stories are rich with the details and realities of Filipino urban middle-class life-sometimes sumptuous, often disturbing, always engaging - which she approaches with droll humor, and a deep empathy which comes not only from a familiarity with her subjects, but an artist's appreciation of human frailty." |
