Produktbeschreibung
This is a collection of the first selected stories of an Ilokano writer couple with translation in English. It contains diverse forms of short fictions with local and international settings: humorous, crestfallen, traditional, and contemporary. It also contains their published, unpublished, and awarded stories. Sinamar was admired during her prime and had a bunch of fans reading her fictions not only because of their themes that affect the mood but also because of her alluring name-Sinamar. It means rays of light, which precisely allured the attention of her husband. On the other side, Lorenzo became popular because of his first novel, Ti Imetda nga Impierno, published by the Bannawag magazine when he was twenty-two years old and was the youngest writer turned novelist during his time. Sinamar congratulated him in the Dakami Met or Letters to the Editor, and it was the start of their relationship. His book was followed by Ramut ti Sinamar and then Agus, the sequels of the trilogy of Pupoy's life. He became more known when his tongue-in-cheek novel Pakpakawan, Berde! was followed by more humorous novels until the publication of his award-winning contemporary novel Adtoy, Siak ni Jesus Crisostomo: Dramaturgo. See the whole list of their writings in their separate bibliographies between the English (translation) and the Ilokano (original) sections of the book.
