Summary: Sonetos Postumos (Posthumous Sonnets) is perhaps Rio Alma at his inventive best, using the traditional form of the sonnet, and the landscape of the Holy Land (each poem is named after a biblical locale) to comment on various subjects of faith, the Filipino condition and society. The book, richly illustrated with existing paintings by National Artist Ang Kiukok (whom Alma approached for the book shortly before Kiukok passed away), is "strewn with relics of the past... scattered with keys and clues to looking at the present and contemplating the future... Between 'breath and death'."
