In After the Body Displaces Water, characters search for warmth in various ways and places-with alcohol, through love, in memory. A young woman imagines dead, bloated rats under her bed while struggling to understand the traps and temptations of city life. A grandmother brews tea and dreams of Willie Revillame as her husband sings love songs in another part of town. Here, Daryll Delgado employs her fine talent creating a highly sensual world where taste, touch, sight, smell are no mere experiences of flesh but powerful evocations of loss and longing.--- -Katrina Tuvera (Source: http://www.libros.com.ph/bibliofiles/)
