Summary: Maria L.M. Fres-Felix, author of Boy in the Platinum Palace and Other Stories, is described by National Artist F. Sionil Jose as one of the few writers today who knows how to write a story. He goes on to describe her as a consummate craftsman, possessing both style and originality. Jose goes on to praise her skillful use of choice verbs rather than adverbs and adjectives, as well as her ability to incorporate tiny details which contribute to the plausibility of the story. This collection of short stories, the author's second with UP Press, covers a range of settings, from domiciles, to corporate offices, to care giving institutions. It does not limit itself to the present period buts makes a foray into the country's colonial past. (Source: http://ovpaa.up.edu.ph)
