A meditation in fiction on the role of the upper classes in oppresive regimes, Gun Dealers' Daughter is a human drama of a thoughtful girl's 'split soul.' Stuck in amnesiac trauma, Soledad Soliman, or Sol, finds herself telling her story backwards, unfolding a psychological and political mystery: both protagonist and reader untravel in tandem the puzzle of the heroine's past and clues to the plot that indicts her. Weaving together a story of upper-class Manila during martial law times, Gun Dealers' Daughter is an obdurately literate tale of rebellion and romance, adolescence and assasins-probing the role of the individual, the role of all of us, in complex times.
