📌 Paperback 📌 Brand-new ✔️ In very good condition (10/10) In the Philippines, the caste of “untouchables” is not the impoverished peasant but the elite leadership, on which society depends so much for patronage, but from which the masses more commonly have received indifference, cruelty, and betrayal of purpose. In the Bamboo Dancers... Gonzalez’s characters are discovered rather than explained. They present themselves without comment from the author. Such subtlety and disciplined self-restraint keep Gonzalez’s fiction far from the ordinary “literature of protest” ... Perhaps Gonzalez’s constant attentiveness to the manner of speech, and even to silence, owes much to his culture’s reliance, for unobtrusive communication, on courteous consideration of others... Gonzalez’s craft is perfectly expressive of these Asian aspects of Philippine folkways.- Leonard Casper, Critical Survey of Long Fiction Mass Market Paperback, 358 pages Published 1993 by Bookmark (first published 1959 ISBN 9715690572 (ISBN13: 9789715690577) Edition language English Literary Awards Philippine Cultural Heritage Award, Rizal Pro-Patria Award 👆 Book summary included in the pictures above 👍 All listed items are available 😊 Click the "View Shop" button above to see more book choices ******************************** EXPRESS YOUR LOVE TO SOMEONE by giving them a BOOK 📖💖🎁 Pair your chosen book with the "Nookturnal Care Package" 😊 📌 Click the "View Shop" button and search for "Nookturnal Care Package" for more info ******************************** 💚Feel free to chat with me for inquiries 💚More pictures sent upon request
