Summary: Sarena's Story: The Loss of a Kingdom is an exquisitely nuanced, sophisticated, and sensitive rendering of a life spent in the service and the company of a royal family in Mindanao. Criselda Yabes delivers the reader to a world and a past-a continuing past, in many ways-that few Filipinos have seen and ventured into. In this work, history, biography, and memoir are refracted through a narrative revealing unexpected pleasures, like a cut-glass object held up to the light and swiveled ever so slowly for the reader's delectation.
